Brief Introduction:

Ethylene glycol monobutyl ether is an organic compound with the chemical formula C6H14O2. It is a colourless and transparent liquid, soluble in water, acetone, benzene, ether, methanol, carbon tetrachloride and other organic solvents and mineral oil. Mainly used as a high boiling point solvent for paints, especially nitrocellulose spray paints, quick-drying paints, varnishes, enamels and paint strippers. It is also used as adhesive, non-reactive diluent, metal detergent, paint stripper, fiber wetting agent, pesticide dispersant, drug extractant, and resin plasticizer.

Applications of our Ethylene Glycol Monobutyl Ether(Butyl Glycol):

As a commonly used solvent, ethylene glycol monobutyl ether is widely used in pharmaceutical, chemical, food, plastic, printing and dyeing, ink and other industries. Can be used to make pigments, resins, paints, glues, detergents, etc. In addition, ethylene glycol butyl ether can also be used as antifreeze, bactericide, reducing agent, etc., and can improve the fluidity of polymers and enhance elasticity.

1. Medicine:

Ethylene glycol monobutyl ether is also used in the pharmaceutical field. It can be used as a solvent that regulates endothelial cell permeability and inhibits fibrinolysis. It can treat diseases such as pulmonary insufficiency by improving the permeability of the vascular endothelial barrier. It can also be used to make drug microspheres and sustained-release agents.

2. Food:

Ethylene glycol monobutyl ether is used in the food industry as a bactericide, preservative and colour-preserving agent.

3. Paints and Coatings:

Ethylene glycol monobutyl ether is mainly used as a high-boiling point solvent for nitrocellulose spray paint, quick-drying paint, varnish, enamel and paint stripper, which can improve the gloss and fluidity of the coating film.

4. Daily Chemicals:

Ethylene glycol monobutyl ether can also be used to make leather, plastic and other products to increase their durability and softness. At the same time, it can also be used as an anti-leather cracking agent to prevent leather from drying out and cracking easily.

5. Analysis and Determination:

Used as a reagent and solvent for the determination of iron and molybdenum, and also used to separate calcium and strontium from nitrates.

6. Ethylene glycol monobutyl ether is also used as a stabilizer for latex paints, evaporation inhibitors for aircraft paints, automobile engine detergents, surface processing of high-temperature baking enamels, and auxiliary solvents for mineral oil emulsification, etc.

Packaging:
