Synonym(s): TBP, phosphoric acid tributyl ester, tri-n-butyl phosphate.

Description

CG 530, Tributyl phosphate, also known as TBP, is a colorless and odorless transparent liquid at ambient. It is slightly soluble in water, but is miscible with most organic solvents, such as toluene. It is used as an extracting agent for rare earth metals. In some cases, TBP is used as a plasticizer. It is also used as a defoaming agent in dyes, coatings, petroleum drilling and paper industries.

  • Defoaming agent used in many industries, such as construction and textiles

  • Plasticizer

  • Extracting agent

  • Lab uses

CG 530, Triphenyl phosphite, is widely used in many industries, which include, but are not limited to, Plastic and rubbers, rare-earth metals, lubricants, coatings, and dyes, paints, and adhesives, etc.

Manufacturing Process

Tributyl phosphate, TBP, is typically manufactured by reacting n-butanol with phosphoryl trichloride. Hydrochloride, a strong inorganic acid, is a side product in the production.

Chemical Reactions

Tributyl phosphate is hydrolyzed in the presence of an acid or base catalyst. The products resulted from the hydrolysis of tributyl phosphate are phosphoric acid and butanol.

Tributyl phosphate reacts with concentrated nitric acid to form a TBP-HNO3 adduct.
