Chemical Properties	white crystalline solid
Chemical Properties	Butylated Hydroxytoluene is a white to pale yellow crystalline solid or powder.
Chemical Properties	Butylated hydroxytoluene occurs as a white or pale yellow crystalline solid or powder with a faint characteristic phenolic odor.
Occurrence	Not reported found naturally.
Uses	Butylated Hydroxytoluene is also known as butylated hydroxy toluene. It is an anti-oxidant that also has preservative and masking capabilities.
Uses	Butylated Hydroxytoluene (BHT) is an antioxidant that functions similarly to butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) but is less stable at high temperatures. It is also termed 2,6-di-tert-butyl-para-cresol. See Butylated Hydroxyanisole.
Uses	Antioxidant 264 as general antioxidants is used widely in polymer materials, petroleum products and food processing industries. Antioxidant 264 is commonly used rubber antioxidant, heat, oxygen aging have some protective effect, but also can inhibit copper harm. This product does not change color, not pollution. Antioxidants 264 high solubility in oil, no precipitation, less volatile, non-toxic and non-corrosive.
Uses	Antioxidant for food, animal feed, petroleum products, synthetic rubbers, plastics, animal and vegetable oils, soaps. Antiskinning agent in paints and inks.
Uses	Because they prevent rancidity, antioxidants are of great interest to the food industry. For example, butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT), butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA), and EDTA are frequently used to preserve various foods, such as cheese or fried products. Butylated hydroxytoluene is a powerful inhibitor of lipid peroxidation, yet large doses of it can induce oxidative DNA damage and cancer development in the rat forestomach.
Definition	ChEBI: A member of the class of phenols that is 4-methylphenol substituted by tert-butyl groups at positions 2 and 6.
Preparation	Butylated Hydroxytoluene is produced commercially by the alkylation of para-cresol with isobutylene. Butylated Hydroxytoluene is also produced by several western European manufacturers, production/processing plants in Germany, France, the Netherlands, United Kingdom and Spain.
Production Methods	Prepared by the reaction of p-cresol with isobutene.
General Description	White crystalline solid.
Air & Water Reactions	Insoluble in water.
