Tributoxyethyl Phosphate Supplier Malaysia
- Also known as
- Tris(2-Butoxyethyl) Phosphate
- Tri(butoxyethyl) Phosphate
- Butoxyethyl Phosphate
- Butyl Cellosolve Phosphate
Tributoxyethyl phosphate supplier enquiries in Malaysia typically specify TBEP for acrylic floor finishes, inks or plasticiser formulations. Also known as tris(2-butoxyethyl) phosphate and butyl cellosolve phosphate, it is a clear, colourless to pale yellow, low-volatility oily liquid.
TBEP is traded as a technical material defined by purity, acid value and colour rather than by a broad grade ladder. Floor-finish and general-purpose requirements can therefore be matched to the buyer's formulation specification without implying that TBEP and the similarly abbreviated TBP are interchangeable.
In acrylic floor polish and metal-interlock floor finishes, tributoxyethyl phosphate serves as a levelling, coalescing and plasticising component associated with film and gloss development. It is also used in printing inks, coatings, defoamer formulations, selected cellulose and vinyl systems, and functional fluids.
Send the required purity, acid value, colour specification, application, quantity and delivery location with your enquiry. Packing, available documentation, delivery arrangements and quotation validity are confirmed for the stated requirement.

Common questions about tributoxyethyl phosphate
What is tributoxyethyl phosphate used for?
It is used in acrylic floor finishes, metal-interlock floor polishes, printing inks, coatings, defoamer formulations and selected plasticised or functional-fluid systems.
How is a TBEP technical grade selected?
Buyers normally specify the required purity, acid value and colour for the intended formulation. Include those limits and the application in the enquiry.
Is TBEP the same as tributyl phosphate?
No. Tributoxyethyl phosphate, often shortened to TBEP in this trade, is a different substance from tributyl phosphate, commonly abbreviated TBP.
What details are needed for a quotation?
Provide the required specification, application, quantity and delivery location. Packing and available documentation are confirmed with the quotation.
