Application
1-Methoxy-2-propanol is primarily used in the manufacture of lacquers and paints, as an anti-freeze in industrial engines, a tailing agent for inks used on very high-speed presses, a coupling agent for resins and dyes in waterbased inks, and a solvent for celluloses, acrylics, dyes, inks, and stains. It is also used in cleaning products such as glass and rug cleaners, carbon and grease removers, and paint and varnish removers; and in pesticide formulations as a solvent for applications to crops and animals.
Storge & Handling
Shall be stored in a cool, dry place to maintain its stability and prolong its shelf life. Proper storage conditions are crucial to prevent product degradation, as ethylene carbonate can slowly decompose in the presence of moisture.
