Glycol Ethers
Glycol Ethers

Low-odor and low-metallic glycol ether using proprietary purification technologies.

Glycol ethers are mainly used as solvents in paint, ink, detergent and electronic material.

Aromatic, aliphatic and ester-type glycol ethers are also used as raw materials in polymers such as acrylic and polyester.

FUNCTION

APPLICATION

DMC
Dimethyl carbonate

Dimethyl carbonate (DMC) is used as a VOC-exempt solvent in many paints and coatings. It is a fast evaporating polar solvent and can replace esters, glycol ethers and ketones in formulations. DMC can be used as a methylating and carbonylating reagent in organic synthesis.

Advantages:

• Competitively priced vs MEK, MAK, Toluene
• Good solvency: works well in acrylics and alkyds
• Medium-fast evaporation rate
• Non-mutagenic
• Non-HAPS
• Low MIR value: one of the lowest MIR value of any liquid chemical in commercial production
• Readily biodegradable with low potential to bio-accumulate or be persistent in the environment

PROPERTIES
Evaporation Rate (BuAc = 1.0) – 3.22
Flashpoint – 63ºF
Boiling point – 90ºC
Freezing Point – 4ºC (handle like water)
