Synoflex® GTA
(Non-Toxic Plasticizer, Humectant & Multifunctional Solvent)
Chemical Name:
Glycerol Triacetate
Synonym:
Triacetin
CAS No.:
102-76-1
Molecular structure：
Synoflex® GTA(Glycerol Triacetate) is the triester of glycerol and acetic acid. Owing to its balanced hydrophilic-lipophilic properties, it functions as both a humectant and a solvent. It is chemically stable, biodegradable, and minimally irritating to skin. Triacetin serves as a non-reactive diluent and plasticizer, reducing viscosity and enhancing film flexibility. It is widely utilized as a plasticizer, solvent, and fragrance fixative in tobacco, pharmaceutical, food, and cosmetic industries.
