Diethylene Glycol Monoethyl Ether Acetate

Diethylene glycol monoethyl ether acetate is mainly used as solvents for the metal, furniture spray paint and smear paint. It also can be used as solvents of protective paint, dyestuff, resin, leather, printing ink and can be used in the formula of metal, glasses etc hard superficial cleaner and can be used as chemical reagent. Diethylene Glycol monoethyl ether acetate can be used as polymerizate reagent of emulsion paint. Due to the excellent solubility and slow speed of evaporating, it is ideal solvent in the production technique of slow drying nitrocellulose paint, natural paint or spray paint.
