Zusammenfassung:Compositions containing tetrahydrofurfuryl and/or alkyl-substituted tetrahydrofurfuryl esters of citric acid are provided. These esters of citric acid can be formed from renewable materials and can be used, for example, as plasticizers for various polymeric materials. The tetrahydrofurfuryl and/or alkyl-substituted tetrahydrofurfuryl esters of citric acid typically have a low odor, have good compatibility with a variety of polymeric materials, and can be used at temperatures often encountered during hot melt processing of polymeric materials.
