Lanxess Uniplex 83 Plastic Additive
Categories: Other Engineering Material; Additive/Filler for Polymer

Material Notes: The low odor and excellent color stability of Uniplex 83 make it an excellent general purpose plasticizer. Uniplex 83 has been widely used in polyvinyl chloride polymers and cellulosic resins as a replacement to the phthalate plasticizers

Chemical composition: Tri-n-butyl Citrate (TBC)

General properties and Applications: Uniplex 83 has been widely formulated/plasticize in polyvinyl chloride polymers and cellulosic resins as a replacement to the phthalate plasticizers. The low odor and excellent color stability of Uniplex 83 make it an excellent general purpose plasticizer. Cellulose nitrate films plasticized with Uniplex 83 have lower volatility loss, better resistance to yellowing and better adhesion to metals than those plasticized with dibutyl phthalate. Other uses of Uniplex 83 include:

  • PVC Flooring
  • Dairy product cartons
  • Drink bottle caps
  • Food jar caps
Uniplex 83 is used when regulations and recommendations governing food contacting applications need to be met. More information is available on request.
