Triethyl Citrate — CAS 77-93-0
Triethyl citrate (TEC, CAS 77-93-0) is a citric acid ester widely used as a non-toxic plasticizer, film-forming agent, and food additive across pharmaceutical, food, and personal care sectors. UAB An Group Export supplies it in food and pharmaceutical grades, matched to each customer's formulation and process requirements.
It is used across pharmaceutical film coating, food flavoring and packaging, personal care formulations, and specialty plasticizer applications. Its low toxicity, good compatibility with a wide range of polymers, and regulatory approval across major markets make it a preferred plasticizer where phthalate-free and food-contact-safe performance is required.
For industrial buyers, supply is coordinated around grade, purity, volume, packaging, and delivery destination, in line with applicable product and transport regulations. Bulk and commercial orders are both handled — send your requirements and we'll prepare a quote covering supply, packaging, logistics, and delivery.
