On Triacétine
Triacétine is unique and has various heterogeneity. It is widely used in various domains, and its production method is also studied by many workers.

The quality of Triacétine is first seen in its shape. Under room temperature, it is often transparent. If the liquid flows and the quality is pure, its taste is light and odorless, and it has good miscibility. It can be soluble with many kinds of organic solvents and is slightly soluble in water. This property makes it a good choice for preparations and solvents. And its chemical properties are relatively stable. When it encounters acid-base and temperature changes, it is not easy to change. However, when it encounters strong acid and alkali, it can also be changed when exposed to high temperature for a long time.

As for its use, it involves many domains. First, in the field of medicine, it can be an excipient for medicine. The drug is conformal, easy to swallow and absorb. And it has the effect of solubilizing, so that the solubility of insoluble drugs in the liquid rises, and the effect of medicine is obvious. Second, in the field of food, it is an excellent fragrance solvent, which imparts a good fragrance to the food, and is safe and edible, maintaining the quality and taste of the food. Third, in the chemical industry, it is one of the plasticizers. Plastic is added to increase its softness and toughness, making plastic products more suitable for civilian and industrial use.

The method of making Triacétine has multiple ends. Common, glycerin and acetic acid are used as materials, and a reminder is added, which is formed by esterification. Strong acids such as sulfuric acid are often selected as a catalyst to promote the speed of reaction and the rate of yield. In the middle, temperature control, pressure and material ratio should be necessary, when the temperature is high, the side should be increased, and when the temperature is low, it should be slowed down; pressure discomfort also hinders the application; the material ratio is unbalanced, and it is difficult to achieve the best yield.

In summary, Triacétine is widely used in medicine, food, chemical industry and other fields due to its special properties, and its production method is also improved with the technology. In the future, with the depth of research, its use may be wider, the production method may be better, and more contributions will be made to the progress of the industry and the needs of the people.
