- Solvents
Industries
- Cleaning
- CASE & Construction
2-Butoxyethanol Used in the Coating Industry
2-Butoxyethanol, a high-boiling solvent, is widely used in nitro lacquers, quick-dry paints, varnishes, and enamels. It improves film flow and gloss, and prevents blushing in humid conditions.


Butyl Cellosolve Used in the Household Use
Butyl Cellosolve is added to some household cleaning products to enhance cleaning performance.
Ethylene Glycol Monobutyl Ether Used in the Construction Industry
Used as a concrete coupling agent, ethylene glycol monobutyl ether improves adhesion between cement mortar/concrete and polystyrene foam, boosting strength and durability for stable, safe construction.


Butyl Glycol Used in the Printing Industry
Butyl glycol is commonly used as a solvent in printing inks to help them penetrate and adhere better to paper or other substrates.
