Application

Triacetin, CP serves multiple purposes across various industries; it is primarily utilized as a hydrophilic plasticizer in the coating of capsules, tablets, beads, and granules in both aqueous and solvent-based polymeric systems. Typically, it is used in concentrations ranging from 10-35% w/w. As a versatile compound, triacetin also finds application in cosmetics, perfumery, and foods as a solvent and fixative, enhancing the formulation of perfumes and flavors. In perfumery, triacetin acts as a fixative to stabilize the fragrance, while in the manufacturing of celluloid and photographic films, it serves as an effective solvent. Additionally, due to its fungistatic properties resulting from the controlled release of acetic acid through hydrolysis, triacetin has been used in the topical treatment of minor dermatophyte infections, showcasing its multifunctional nature in diverse applications.
