- Coatings and Inks: It serves as a diluent, cosolvent, paint remover, etc. It is used in the production of automotive paints, polyurethane paints, high - end wood paints, and other water - based architectural coatings. It can also be used to control the evaporation rate of inks and as a viscosity regulator.
-
- Adhesives: It can be used as a solvent and plasticizer to improve the bonding performance and flexibility of adhesives.
-
- Cleaning Agents: It is the main solvent, grease remover, and surfactant in cleaning agents, and is used in automotive glass cleaners, household cleaners, metal cleaners, etc.
-
- Pesticides: It is used as an intermediate for the herbicide metolachlor and can also be used as a solvent for insecticides and organophosphorus pesticide antidotes.
-
- Electronic Manufacturing: It is used as a solvent and cleaning agent to ensure the cleanliness and stability of electronic products.
-
- Pharmaceuticals: It is used as a solvent in the preparation of oral medications, eye drops, topical medications, injections, etc.
-
- Cosmetics and Personal Care Products: As a solvent added to cosmetics, it plays a moisturizing role and helps improve rough skin conditions.

3/Product advantage
- Excellent Solubility It has good solubility for various resins, such as acrylic resin, epoxy resin, alkyd resin, etc. This makes it a key component in fields like coatings and inks. It can effectively dissolve resins, ensuring the uniformity and stability of coatings and inks. For example, in automotive paints, it can evenly disperse pigments, enhancing the color and smoothness of the paint surface.
-
- Moderate Volatility Rate It neither volatilizes too quickly, which could cause defects in the coating such as orange peel and pinholes, nor too slowly, which would lead to an overly long drying time and affect production efficiency. During the coating construction, it allows the solvent to volatilize within an appropriate time, enabling the coating to form a good appearance and performance.
-
- Good Miscibility with Water It can be miscible with water in any proportion. This property makes it suitable for water - based system products, such as water - based coatings and water - based inks. It can help adjust the drying speed and viscosity of the system, improve the leveling property, and enhance product performance.
-
- Low Toxicity and Environmental Friendliness Compared with some traditional organic solvents, such as benzene and toluene, propylene glycol methyl ether has relatively low toxicity and poses less harm to the health of operators. With the increasingly strict environmental requirements, it complies with relevant regulations and environmental standards, reduces environmental pollution, and is widely used in fields with high environmental requirements, such as interior decorative coatings and food - packaging inks.
-
- Good Chemical Stability Under normal storage and use conditions, it is not prone to chemical reactions with other substances. This can ensure the stability of products during storage and use, and extend the product's shelf life.
-
- Wide Range of Application Fields Due to the above characteristics, it is used in many industries, including coatings, inks, adhesives, cleaning agents, pesticides, electronic manufacturing, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, etc. It has strong versatility and high market demand.
-
- High Safety It has a relatively high flash point, which means that during use and storage, the risk of fire is relatively low, improving operational safety.
