Tris(2-butoxyethyl) Phosphate
TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
Tris(2-butoxyethyl) Phosphate (TBEP) is a high-performance alkyl phosphate plasticizer and flame retardant. It appears as a clear, low-viscosity liquid with excellent compatibility in various polymers.
This Technical Grade additive is specifically designed to improve the low-temperature flexibility of resins. It also functions as a powerful defoaming agent in aqueous systems like floor polishes and paints.
TBEP is valued for its ability to reduce the viscosity of plastisols while providing fire-retardant properties. It is a versatile solvent and coalescing aid in the production of high-gloss coatings.
APPLICATIONS
- Floor Polishes: Acts as a leveling agent and plasticizer to prevent cracking and improve gloss.
- Plastic & Rubber: Used in NBR and PVC to enhance low-temperature performance and flame resistance.
- Ink & Coatings: Serves as an anti-foaming agent and coalescent for water-based architectural paints.
SAFETY & RISKS
Classified as Harmful if Inhaled and Aquatic Chronic 3. Ensure adequate ventilation and use chemical-resistant gloves and goggles during industrial blending.
