  • Applications

    1-(1-Methyl-2-propoxyethoxy)2-propanol (CAS 29911-27-1) is commonly used as a solvent and processing aid in coatings, inks, and adhesives, where it aids resin dissolution, improves film formation, and can function as a coalescing agent in waterborne systems; serves as an ingredient in industrial cleaners and degreasers due to its solvency for oils, resins, and organic contaminants; acts as a solvent or humectant in cosmetics and personal-care formulations; functions as a processing aid or intermediate in polymer and plastics formulations to adjust solubility and compatibility; may be included in electronics cleaning formulations for residue removal; and can be a chemical intermediate for the synthesis of other glycol ether derivatives. Subject to local regulations and formulation limits.
