ClassSmall Molecule
DescriptionCellulose triacetate (triacetate, CTA, or TAC) is a chemical compound produced from cellulose and is a source of acetate esters, typically acetic anhydride. Cellulose triacetate is commonly used for the creation of fibres and film base. It is chemically similar to cellulose acetate. Its distinguishing characteristic is that at least 92 percent of the hydroxyl groups are acetylated. During the manufacture of cellulose triacetate, the cellulose is completely acetylated whereas in normal cellulose acetate or cellulose diacetate, it is only partially acetylated. Cellulose triacetate is significantly more heat-resistant than cellulose acetate (Wikipedia). Cellulose triacetate is used as a food additive (EAFUS: Everything Added to Food in the United States).
