Carbitol acetate

DCAC (also known as Carbitol Acetate) is an environmentally friendly high-boiling-point solvent, with its main applications as follows:

I. Coatings and Inks

1. ‌Solvent and Additive‌
   • Used in paints, baking finishes, and high-end spray paints (such as automotive coatings and aircraft paints) to extend drying time for achieving high-gloss surfaces.
   • Acts as a co-solvent in latex paints to enhance film flexibility and film-forming performance.
   • Improves flow and adhesion in printing inks.

II. Electronics Industry

1. ‌Cleaning and Photolithography Processes‌
   • Used as a circuit board wipe, photoresist thinner, and photoresist remover.
   • Serves as a cleaning agent for IC chips and a high-resistivity solvent.

III. Surface Treatment and Cleaning

1. ‌Hard Surface Cleaning‌
   • Used in formulations for metal and glass cleaners to effectively dissolve grease and resin residues.
2. ‌Paint Stripping and Removal‌
   • Functions as a component in paint strippers for resins and rubber.

IV. Polymer Material Processing

1. ‌Resin and Plastic Solvent‌
   • Dissolves cellulose esters, phenolic resins, synthetic resins, and natural rubber.
2. ‌Adhesive and Film Manufacturing‌
   • Used in adhesive dilution and plastic film production.

️ V. Safety Precautions

‌Environmental Characteristics‌: Low volatility, complies with environmental standards, gradually replacing traditional toxic solvents.
