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).

The determination of commercial plasticizers (di-(2-ethylhexyl)adipate (DEHA) and acetyl tributyl citrate (ATBC)) in aqueous solutions is described. The newly proposed technique of applying microwaves to cloud point extracts in order to enable combination with gas chromatographic analysis has been used

Theophylline or chlorpheniramine maleate pellets were coated with an aqueous ethylcellulose dispersion, Aquacoat. The influence of the plasticization time, curing conditions, storage time, and core properties on the drug release were investigated. The plasticization time (time between plasticizer addition to
