Amine with alcohol and amine characteristics used in detergent, personal care, textile finishing, and wood treating products, as well as oil well and metalworking products for corrosion prevention. Also can be used as a cement grinding aid. Building block in the manufacture of triazine based corrosion inhibitors.
A fast-evaporating glycol ether with an excellent balance of hydrophilic and hydrophobic character; excellent active solvency and coupling properties. It is a versatile solvent product with balance properties.
Fast evaporating solvent with high water solubility and active solvency used in a variety of applications such as solvent-based coatings, household and industrial cleaners, and agricultural pesticides.
Amine with alcohol and amine characteristics used in detergents, urethane foams, cement grinding aids, and in the manufacture of various amine compounds. Building block in the manufacture of triazine based corrosion inhibitors.
Mid-to slow evaporating solvent. Has 100% water solubility and is ideally suited as a coupling agent in a wide range of solvent systems. Has a higher flash point than DOWANOL™ PM glycol ether making it easier to handle, store, and ship. Often incorporated into latex emulsion coatings; can be used to prevent shocking (coagulation of emulsion) when hydrophobic solvents are used. More broadly, its hydrophilic nature makes it an ideal coupling aid in water reducible coatings, and cleaning applications. Used with cleaners because they offer an extensive combination of basic physical and performance properties for cleaning formulations. The intermediate evaporation rate allow it to be used in a potentially wider range of systems than many other solvents.
High molecular weight Polyethylene Glycol that provides enhanced solvency, lubricity, hygroscopicity and other important functional properties in a wide range of formulations. Hard, waxy solid having the appearance of thin, irregularly shaped shards. Chemically equivalent to its spherical granular counterpart, being produced from the same molten material. Owing to the lower surface area as compared to the granular form, the flaked grade exhibits longer relative dissolution times in water-based applications. This material contains the added stabilizer, BHT, at a nominal concentration of 100 PPM. INCI Name: PEG-180
A slow-evaporating, hydrophilic glycol ether with excellent coalescing and coupling power that offers strong solvency and chemical stability for a broad array of household products. Butyl CARBITOL™ glycol ether solvent has a vapor pressure that qualifies it as an exempt VOC (volatile organic compound) under the California Air Resources Board and U.S. EPA criteria for both consumer and commercial cleaning product applications. Other functional characteristics include, readily biodegradable and US EPA Inerts listed for non food use.
