Dipropylene glycol butyl ether

　　Main Applications

　　Coatings and Inks Industry

　　As a solvent or co-solvent, used in water-based and solvent-based coatings (such as architectural coatings, industrial coatings, and automotive coatings), it can improve the leveling, gloss, and adhesion of the coatings, and reduce film defects (such as craters and pinholes).

　　Regulates drying speed in inks and improves pigment dispersion, making it particularly suitable for high-solid inks and environmentally friendly inks.

　　Cleaners and Cosmetics

　　As a component of industrial cleaners, it dissolves grease, wax, resin, and other stains, suitable for scenarios such as metal surface cleaning and electronic component degreasing. Due to low volatility and low irritation, it can also be used in household cleaners (such as glass cleaners).

　　In cosmetics (such as skincare products and conditioners), it acts as a solvent or humectant, helping to dissolve active ingredients while reducing product irritation.

　　Textile and Leather Industry

　　As a solvent for textile auxiliaries, used for dissolving and dispersing dyes and softeners, improving the dyeing uniformity of textiles.

　　In leather processing, it acts as a solvent for degreasing agents or finishing agents, enhancing the flexibility and gloss of leather.

　　Other Applications

　　Used as a cleaning agent for printed circuit boards (PCBs) to dissolve solder residues and fluxes.

　　As a solvent for agricultural chemicals (such as pesticides and herbicides), improving the stability and permeability of the agents.
