Application:
1.Food Additive: Triethyl citrate is often utilized as a food additive, primarily as a flavoring agent, stabilizer, and emulsifier. It is used to enhance the taste and aroma of food products and to improve their shelf life. Additionally, it is employed in the production of food packaging materials.
2.Plasticizer: Triethyl citrate is a plasticizer, which means it is added to plastics to increase their flexibility, durability, and workability. It is commonly used in polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and other polymers to improve their processing characteristics and make them suitable for various applications, such as in medical devices, toys, and food packaging.
3.Solvent: Triethyl citrate can function as a solvent for various substances, including flavors, fragrances, and cosmetic ingredients. It is often used in personal care products, such as perfumes, lotions, and creams, to dissolve and stabilize different components.
