Butylglycol - solvent 2-butoxyethanol

Butylglycol 99.7% - organic solvent from the group of glycol ethers. Thanks to the polar-non-polar structure of the molecule, it dissolves both water-soluble and insoluble substances. It is widely used as a component of cleaning agents and pigments. The solvent 2-butoxyethanol is used in the industry of paints, varnishes and acrylic resins. Butylglycol is used in agents for degreasing surfaces in industrial and professional chemistry. It is used as an ingredient in alkaline preparations for foaming cars. In professional chemistry, it is used in concentrates for cleaning glass surfaces. Butyl glycol is used as a component of agents for removing residues and dirt from polymer dispersions. Butylglycol is used in products for removing dirt in car workshops, printing houses, construction sites. It is approved as a food additive and is used in biocides, antifoams and stabilizers. Butoxyethanol is used in the petroleum industry for its good surfactant properties in fracturing fluids and drilling stabilizers. It is also used as an anti-clotting ingredient. It is also known to use butyl glycol as a reagent in synthesis processes.

In addition, butyl glycol is used:
• in cleaning products for dry-erase boards
• production of silicone gaskets
• production of latex paints
• production of cleaners
• production of herbicides
• production of cosmetics
