Are there better alternatives for phthalates to envelop egg?

A lot of negative information is spreading about phthalates

Answer

The replacement agent par excellence is triacetin or Glyceryl triacetate. But I fear that this is not available.

Maybe 1 to 2% castor oil is an alternative. I have no experience with it and do not know to what extent the castor oil will be soluble in it or the solvent (es) used for the preparation of the CAP solution. Must therefore be tried.
