    BUTYL CELLOSOLVE™

    Ethylene Glycol Monobutyl Ether

    C4H9OCH2CH2OH

    Description

    A fast-evaporating glycol ether with an excellent balance of hydrophilic and hydrophobic character; excellent
    active solvency and coupling properties

    Introduction

    Butyl CELLOSOLVE glycol ether is a very versatile solvent product with a good balance of many different
    properties. With a nearly equal balance of hydrophobic and hydrophilic character, Butyl CELLSOLVE glycol ether
    provides excellent performance in coatings, cleaners, and many other types of products. It is one of our fastest
    evaporating glycol ethers. Butyl CELLOSOLVE glycol ether is compatible with a wide range of resin types, and it
    also offers 100% water solubility.
