Product Advantages
• Purity exceeds 99.5% with minimal impurities; features a stable distillation range and remains suitable for use even in winter.
• Certified by SGS (SGS-CSTC Standards Technical Services Co., Ltd.; report no. CANEC1412847502). Testing of the submitted sample confirms that levels of cadmium, lead, mercury, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyls (PBBs), and polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) comply with the limits set forth in Annex II of the EU RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU (recast of Directive 2002/95/EU).
• Possesses a mild, pleasant, ester-like aroma, making it an excellent choice for low-odor (odor-neutral) coatings.
• High flash point (88°C, Tag Closed Cup); non-flammable.
• An eco-friendly, next-generation solvent designed to replace various conventional solvents, including: ethylene glycol butyl ether acetate (BGA), dibasic esters (DBE), EEP, IBIB, 150# and 200# aromatic solvents, propylene glycol methyl ether acetate (PMA), DMA, EMA, cyclohexanone (CYC), isophorone (783), CAC, ethylene glycol monobutyl ether (BCS), diacetone alcohol (DAA), and others.
Storage Requirements
