TRIETHYLENE GLYCOL MONOBUTYL ETHER Structural

What is TRIETHYLENE GLYCOL MONOBUTYL ETHER?

Chemical properties

colourless to faintly yellow liquid

The Uses of TRIETHYLENE GLYCOL MONOBUTYL ETHER

Triethylene glycol monobutyl ether, glycol ether a highly effective carrier solvent for textile dye processes. With superior surface tension characteristics, water solubility and solvency for oils, it has potential for use in household, institutional, industrial and special-purpose cleaners. The coupling ability of this product enhances performance and improves shelf stability of cleaning products. It is also used as an active solvent for solvent-based coatings, dye carrier for textile dye processes, coupling agent and solvent in household and industrial cleaners, paint and floor polish strippers, hard surface cleaners, and disinfectants, chemical process solvent and intermediate for ester production used as solvents, surfactants and plasticizers, coupling agent for resins and dyes in water-based printing ink, component of high-boiling hydraulic brake fluids.

The Uses of TRIETHYLENE GLYCOL MONOBUTYL ETHER

Plasticizer, intermediate.

The Uses of TRIETHYLENE GLYCOL MONOBUTYL ETHER

Triethylene glycol monobutyl ether (TEGMBE) can be used as a solvent:

In the synthesis of superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles by thermal decomposition method.
in the removal of CO₂due to its solubilize CO₂.

It can also be used as a reactant in the preparation of polyether adducts of bis(1,1,1,5,5,5-hexafluoro-2,4-pentanedionato)barium.
