【To use】
Glycerol tribenzoate is a very important non-o-phenyl solid plasticizer.It has similar plasticy as dicyclohexyl phthalate on vinyl resin and acrylic resin. used as plasticizer on cellulose acetate; As a new environmental protection solid plasticizer and chemical additives, at room temperature GTB can increase the products can be flexible.as a processing aid or plasticizer, it can reduce viscosity during heating, enhanced adhesion or thermal bonding strength.
