Description

It is a colorless transparent liquid.  It is also know as 2-(2-n-Butoxyethoxy)ethyl Acetate; Diethylene Glycol Butyl Ether Acetate; Diethylene glycol monobutyl ether acetate; Diethylene Glycol Mono-n-butyl Ether Acetate; Diglycol Monobutyl Ether Acetate; Butyl Carbitol Acetate; n-Butyl Carbitol Acetate; Diethylene glycol monobutyl ether acetate(DBAC), short for DBA. It has the dual properties of fat ether and carboxylate and can be mixed with water, alcohol, ether, acetone and most oils. Good compatibility for fiber, resin, paint, paint, ink, oil soluble dyes and so on. Can be used as ink oil and baking glaze oil, especially suitable for screen ink, car paint, TV paint, refrigerator paint, aircraft paint and other high-grade paint.
