overview

diethylene glycol butyl ether is a colorless liquid, soluble in water and oils. It is prepared by co-heating ethylene oxide and ethylene glycol butyl ether under pressure.

Use

Used as a solvent for nitrocellulose, varnish, printing ink, oil, resin, etc. and an intermediate for synthetic plastics
Mainly used as a solvent, Used for coatings, dyes, resins, etc., it is also used as an intermediate for plasticizers and a diluent for hydraulic brake liquids. In addition, it is also used to produce pepper butoxy compounds. The oral LD50 of this product to mice is 6560mg/kg.
solvents for nitrocellulose, varnish, printing ink, oil, resin, etc. Plastic intermediate. For surfactant analysis

Production method

In the process of producing ethylene glycol monobutyl ether, ethylene glycol monobutyl ether reacts with ethylene oxide to produce by-product diethylene glycol butyl ether.
