Solvency Properties<\/b><\/p>\n
Glycol ethers are characterized by their excellent solvency, chemical stability and compatibility with water and a number of organic solvents. The dual functionality presents in the Glycol Ethers accounts for their unique solvency properties. They are:<\/p>\n
\u2022 Mild-odored solvents for many resins, oils, waxes, fats and dyestuffs<\/p>\n
\u2022 Coupling agents for many water\/organic systems<\/p>\n
\u2022 Miscible with a wide range of polar and non-polar organic solvents<\/p>\n
\u2022 Miscible with water in all proportionation<\/p>\n
End-Uses<\/b><\/p>\n
This strong solvency leads to the selection of certain glycol ethers for a broad array of end-uses:<\/p>\n
\u2022 Dye solvents in the textile, leather and printing industries<\/p>\n
\u2022 Solvents for grease and grime in industrial cleaning and specialty formulations<\/p>\n
\u2022 Solvents for insecticides and herbicides for agricultural applications<\/p>\n
\u2022 Coupling solvents for hard-surface cleaners and other soap-hydrocarbon systems<\/p>\n
\u2022 Solvents and cosolvents for conventional lacquer, enamel and stains for industrial coating systems<\/p>\n
\u2022 Cosolvents for waterborne industrial coating systems<\/p>\n
\u2022 Fuel System Icing Inhibitor (FSII)<\/p>\n
\u2022 Freeze-thaw agents in aqueous systems<\/p>\n
\u2022 Chemical reaction solvents<\/p>\n
