Tributyl phosphate (TBP) is a strong polar solvent  used in the production of solutions of synthetic resins and natural rubber. In both cellulose based plastics and synthetic resins, TBP is used as a flame-retarding plasticizer.

TBP is employed as a pasting agent for pigment pastes.
Due to the limited influence of temperature on the viscosity of TBP, it also serves as an  important component in the manufacture of hydraulic fluids for aircraft.

As a very strong wetting agent, TBP is used in the textile industry and in the field of adhesives. As a neutral extractant it is able to extract both acids and metal cations.

Tributyl phosphate, known commonly as TBP, is an organophosphorus compound with the chemical formula (CH3CH2CH2CH2O)3PO. This colourless, odorless liquid finds some applications as an extractant and a plasticizer. It is an ester of phosphoric acid with n-butanol.

Production
Tributyl phosphate is manufactured by reaction of phosphoryl chloride with n-butanol.

POCl3 + 3 C4H9OH → PO(OC4H9)3 + 3 HCl
Production is estimated at 3,000–5,000 tonnes worldwide.

Use
TBP is a solvent and plasticizer for cellulose esters such as nitrocellulose and cellulose acetate. It forms stable hydrophobic complexes with some metals; these complexes are soluble
 in organic solvents as well as supercritical CO2. The major uses of TBP in industry are as a component of aircraft hydraulic fluid, brake fluid, and as a solvent for extraction
 and purification of rare-earth metals.

TBP finds its use as a solvent in inks, synthetic resins, gums, adhesives (namely for veneer plywood), and herbicide and fungicide concentrates.

As it has no odour, it is used as an anti-foaming agent in detergent solutions, and in various emulsions, paints, and adhesives. It is also found as a de-foamer in ethylene glycol-borax 
antifreeze solutions.[citation needed] In oil-based lubricants addition of TBP increases the oil film strength. It is used also in mercerizing liquids, where it improves their wetting 
properties. It can be used as a heat-exchange medium. TBP is used in some consumer products such as herbicides and water-thinned paints and tinting bases
