Tributyl Citrate (TBC) NF

serves as a valuable plasticizer in pharmaceutical formulations, enhancing the flexibility, workability, and performance of polymeric materials used in drug delivery systems


  • is known for its high plasticizing efficiency, achieving significant improvements in the flexibility and workability of polymers
  • contributes to the stability and shelf life of pharmaceutical formulations by reducing the brittleness of polymeric materials, preventing cracking, and minimizing the risk of physical degradation over time
  • is frequently employed in the production of drug delivery systems for oral tablets, capsules, transdermal patches, and controlled release formulations
  • by enhancing the flexibility and pliability of polymeric matrices, TBC NF facilitates drug release kinetics, improves drug dissolution rates, and enhances patient compliance with dosage forms
  • meets the specifications outlined in the National Formulary (NF) standards for pharmaceutical excipients, ensuring its safety, purity, and quality for use in pharmaceutical applications
  • sustainable development: supports the United Nation's goal of good health and well-being
  • safer alternative: phthalate-free plasticizer
