Dibutyl tartrate is a di-ester of tartaric acid and butanol. [1] It has been used as a chiral oil to separate enantiomers in chromatography. [2] [3] Another use is in farinographs. [4] Yet another use is as a plasticizer. [5] The material is classed as "green" as it is made from natural products, and is biodegradable. [6]

Properties

The dielectric constant of dibutyl tartrate is 9.4 [7]
