DUB DBS
Dibutyl Sebacate USP/NF Dibutyl Sebacate is manufactured by the esterification of n-butanol and sebacic acid in the presence of a suitable catalyst, and by the distillation of sebacic acid with n-butanol in the presence of concentrated acid. DUB DBS is stable and is not reactive with water and thus hazardous polymerization does not occur. However it is incompatible with strong oxidizing materials and strong alkalis.
