  • Can glycerol and triethyl citrate improve plasticizer effect?
  • This work aimed to optimize the plasticizer effect of glycerol (GLY) and triethyl citrate (TEC), in different concentrations (1.8, 3.6, 5.4, and 7.2 mol), added into the CA. The films were characterized using mechanical strength tests, FTIR, TGA, SEM, and various other analysis technologies.
  • What is triethyl citrate?
  • Tamara Minko, in Journal of Drug Delivery Science and Technology, 2018 Triethyl citrate is a triester of ethyl alcohol-citric acid and is a plasticizer of choice for aqueous system due to its water solubility. It has a viscosity of 35.2 cP at 25 °C [ 24] and a vapor pressure of 1 mm Hg at 107 °C [ 25 ]. Its commercial name is Citroflex ®.
  • Why is triethyl citrate used as a plasticizer?
  • The addition of only 10% w/w triethyl citrate as plasticizer improved the flexibility of the films significantly and allowed compaction of the pellets. The drug release was almost independent of the compression force and the pellet content of the tablets.
  • Can glycerol and triethyl citrate be used as packaging materials?
  • Although promising the use of CA as packaging, this material requires the addition of processing aids, such as plasticizers. This work aimed to optimize the plasticizer effect of glycerol (GLY) and triethyl citrate (TEC), in different concentrations (1.8, 3.6, 5.4, and 7.2 mol), added into the CA.
  • Is acetyl citrate a plasticizer?
  • ... Citrate esters such as triethyl citrate (TEC) and acetyl tributyl citrate (ATBC) have been widely used as plasticizers in PLA formulations, exhibiting excellent ductile properties. Maiza et al. reported plasticized PLA formulations with up to 30 wt.% TEC or ATBC with a noticeable decrease in the glass transition temperature (T g ).
  • Does triethyl citrate hydrolyze in vivo?
  • Tamara Minko, in Journal of Drug Delivery Science and Technology, 2018 It has been found that triethyl citrate hydrolyses in vivo to citric acid and ethanol, which are well-defined compounds with low toxic potential. The rate of hydrolysis of triethyl citrate appears to be slower in human serum compared to rat serum [ 94 ].
