Applications
Diethylene Glycol Diethyl Ether is a high-boiling, low-odor, water-miscible solvent. It is used to improve flow, leveling and cleaning in water-borne and solvent-borne systems.
Inkjet printing: co-solvent to improve color density, keep printhead wet and ensure smooth printing.
Coatings & adhesives: compatible with many resins, helps pigment dispersion and film formation; can replace faster-evaporating, stronger-odor solvents.
Industrial cleaning: low volatility gives longer contact time and better cleaning performance.
Product advantages
- controlled evaporation rate
- safer handling than very low-flash solvents
- miscible with water for low-odor and water-borne systems
- suitable for industrial orders
