I think you might be referring to Tri o-Cresyl Phosphate (CAS No: 78-30-8), you can probably get more info at http://toxnet.nlm.nih.gov/

I believe its a plasticizer, but it could be used for other things.

Plasticizers, btw, are small molecules added to plastics (like PVC, which are big polymers) to make them more flexible and malleable.
