Tri(2-ethylhexyl) Trimellitate(TOTM)
Chemical formula and molecular weight
Chemical formula: C33H54O6
Molecular weight: 546.79
CAS No.: 3319-31-1
Properties and uses
Colourless,transparent oily liquid,b.p.283°C(3mmHg),viscosity 100~300 c.p.(20°C),refractive index 1.4485(25°C).
Used as a heat-endurant and long-lasting plasticizer for polyvinyl chloride,usually for preparing Grade 105°C electrical cable and other heat-resisting plastic products.
It possesses both advantages being used as plasticizer for polyesters and for general purposes. Except producing oilresisting ones,also used in preparing any long-lasting products.
