Butoxyethanol is a glycol ether obtained by adding butyl alcohol to ethylene oxide. The majority of its production is used in the manufacture of paints and coatings.

This oxygenated solvent appears as a clear liquid with an ether odor. It is an analog of PnB solvent and a more volatile version than Butyl Diglycol.

We offer butoxyethanol for sale to professionals in 20-liter cans, 200-liter drums, and 1000-liter IBCs.

MAIN FUNCTIONS

It is primarily used as a solvent in paints but also in detergents. It is valued for its low volatility, allowing extended drying times for paints.

INDUSTRIAL USE

  • Paint, ink, and coating industry: solvent used particularly in acrylic resins, varnishes, lacquers, and latex-based paints.
