Description

Application

• Effect of Starch Plasticization on Morphological, Mechanical, Crystalline, Thermal, and Optical Behavior of Poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate)/Thermoplastic Starch Composite Films.: This study investigates the influence of starch plasticization on various properties of poly(butylene adipate-co-terephthalate) composite films. Tributyl 2-acetylcitrate is evaluated as a plasticizer to enhance the material characteristics, with findings indicating improved mechanical and thermal performance (He et al., 2024, doi:10.3390/polym16030326).


• Toxicological assessment of phthalates and their alternatives using human keratinocytes.: This research examines the toxicological effects of various phthalates and alternative plasticizers, including Tributyl 2-acetylcitrate, on human keratinocytes. The study provides insights into the safety and potential health impacts of these compounds (Kim et al., 2019, doi:10.1016/j.envres.2019.05.007).


• Developmental toxicity of dibutyl phthalate and citrate ester plasticizers in Xenopus laevis embryos.: This study explores the developmental toxicity of dibutyl phthalate and citrate ester plasticizers, including Tributyl 2-acetylcitrate, in amphibian embryos. The research highlights potential developmental risks associated with these compounds (Xu et al., 2018, doi:10.1016/j.chemosphere.2018.04.077).
