Di(propylene glycol) methyl ether is an organic solvent with a variety of industrial and commercial uses. [2] [3] It finds use as a less volatile alternative to propylene glycol methyl ether and other glycol ethers. The commercial product is typically a mixture of four isomers. [4]
Glycol ethers are designated "E-series" or "P-series" for those made from ethylene oxide or propylene oxide, respectively.Typically, E-series glycol ethers are found in pharmaceuticals, sunscreens, cosmetics, inks, dyes and water-based paints, while P-series glycol ethers are used in degreasers, cleaners, aerosol paints and adhesives.
Dipropylene glycol is a mixture of three isomeric chemical compounds, 4-oxa-2,6-heptandiol, 2-(2-hydroxy-propoxy)-propan-1-ol, and 2-(2-hydroxy-1-methyl-ethoxy)-propan-1-ol. It is a colorless, nearly odorless liquid with a high boiling point and low toxicity .

Propylene glycol methyl ether (PGME or 1-methoxy-2-propanol) is an organic solvent with a wide variety of industrial and commercial uses. [3] Similar to other glycol ethers, it is used as a carrier/solvent in printing/writing inks and paints/coatings. It also finds use as an industrial and commercial paint stripper.
2-Methoxynaphthalene, also called β-naphthol methyl ether or yara yara, [2] is a stabilizer found in gunpowder, particularly smokeless gunpowders. It is soluble in alcohol , and insoluble in water and dipropylene glycol .
Propylene glycol methyl ether acetate (PGMEA, 1-methoxy-2-propanol acetate) is a P-type glycol ether used in inks, coatings, and cleaners. It is sold by Dow Chemical under the name Dowanol PMA, [ 3 ] by Shell Chemical under the name methyl proxitol acetate, [ 4 ] [ 5 ] and by Eastman under the name PM Acetate.
Diglyme, or bis(2-methoxyethyl) ether, is an organic compound with the chemical formula (CH 3 OCH 2 CH 2) 2 O. It is a colorless liquid with a slight ether-like odor. It is a solvent with a high boiling point. It is the dimethyl ether of diethylene glycol. The name diglyme is a portmanteau of diglycol methyl ether. It is miscible with water as ...
