Dibutyl Sebacate Supplier in Malaysia
- Also known as
- DBS
Dibutyl sebacate supplier in Malaysia for polymer processors, formulators and pharmaceutical manufacturers. Known as DBS, it is the dibutyl ester of sebacic acid and a colourless to pale yellow mobile oil whose commercial quality is set by ester content, acidity, moisture and colour.
A technical DBS requirement is normally tied to plasticisation and film behaviour in PVC, rubber, coatings, adhesives or inks. Cosmetic buyers instead focus on odour, appearance and formulation compatibility, while pharmaceutical users must name the standard applied to the excipient.
The dibutyl structure distinguishes this product from longer-chain sebacates such as dioctyl sebacate. It should therefore be specified as DBS rather than ordered under a general sebacate-plasticiser description.
Provide the end use, grade, required analytical limits, document needs, quantity and receiving location. The quotation confirms the exact DBS quality, packing and delivery timing. Supply is subject to applicable requirements.
