2-Ethoxyethanol, also known by the trademark Ethyl cellosolve, is a solvent used widely in commercial and industrial applications. It is a clear, colorless, nearly odorless liquid that is miscible with water, ethanol, diethyl ether, acetone, and ethyl acetate. [3] 2-Ethoxyethanol is manufactured by the reaction of ethylene oxide with ethanol.
"Ethyl Cellosolve" or simply "Cellosolve" consists mainly of ethylene glycol monoethyl ether and was introduced as a lower-cost solvent alternative to ethyl lactate. "Butyl Cellosolve" (ethylene glycol monobutyl ether) was introduced in 1928, and "Methyl Cellosolve" (ethylene glycol monomethyl ether) in 1929. [2] [3]
It is a solvent for dyes, nitrocellulose, paints, inks, and resins.It is a component of wood stains for wood, for setting the twist and conditioning yarns and cloth, in textile printing, textile soaps, lacquers, penetration enhancer in cosmetics, drying varnishes and enamels, and brake fluids.
2-Methoxyethanol, or methyl cellosolve, is an organic compound with formula C 3 H 8 O 2 that is used mainly as a solvent.It is a clear, colorless liquid with an ether-like odor.
2-Ethoxyethyl acetate has been used to dissolve polyester and short oil alkyd resins. [4] It has also been used in coatings, dyes, insecticides, soaps and cosmetics. [5] It is also a solvent for nitro-cellulose and is being used for the same applications as ethyl glycol [4] [6]
2-Butoxyethanol is an organic compound with the chemical formula BuOC 2 H 4 OH (Bu = CH 3 CH 2 CH 2 CH 2).This colorless liquid has a sweet, ether-like odor, as it derives from the family of glycol ethers, and is a butyl ether of ethylene glycol.
Dimethoxyethane, also known as glyme, monoglyme, dimethyl glycol, ethylene glycol dimethyl ether, dimethyl cellosolve, and DME, is a colorless, aprotic, and liquid ether that is used as a solvent, especially in batteries. [2]
This page contains tables of azeotrope data for various binary and ternary mixtures of solvents. The data include the composition of a mixture by weight (in binary azeotropes, when only one fraction is given, it is the fraction of the second component), the boiling point (b.p.) of a component, the boiling point of a mixture, and the specific gravity of the mixture.
