Description

Butyl Tallate is a high-purity ester derived from tall oil fatty acids and n-butanol, serving as a versatile chemical intermediate and performance additive. Its primary value lies in its excellent solvency, plasticizing properties, and compatibility with a wide range of polymers and resins. This product is essential for manufacturers in the coatings, adhesives, and plastics industries seeking to enhance product flexibility and processing characteristics. Butyl Tallate CAS NO 67762-63-4 is a key ingredient for formulators requiring a reliable and consistent bio-based component.

Application

• Plasticizer for PVC and Synthetic Rubbers: Imparts flexibility and low-temperature performance to polymer compounds.
• Coalescing Agent & Solvent in Paints/Coatings: Aids in film formation and improves flow and leveling in architectural and industrial coatings.
• Lubricant and Processing Aid: Used in metalworking fluids and as an internal lubricant in plastic extrusion and molding.
• Adhesive and Sealant Formulations: Enhances tack and improves the flexibility of adhesive films.
• Intermediate for Chemical Synthesis: Serves as a building block for producing other esters and specialty chemicals.
• Textile Auxiliaries: Acts as a softener and lubricant in fiber processing.

Quality Control

Our Butyl Tallate is manufactured under a strict quality management system to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and reliability. Each lot is tested against key parameters including acid value, saponification value, color, and viscosity. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) documenting these results is provided with every shipment. We are committed to meeting the specifications required for industrial and specialty chemical applications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from heat sources and incompatible materials such as strong oxidizing agents. Recommended storage temperature is between 15°C and 25°C (59°F and 77°F). Keep container tightly sealed when not in use to minimize moisture absorption and maintain product integrity.
