What is the chemical name for 2EH?
2-Ethylhexanol also known as 2EH with CAS number 104-76-7. 2-Ethylhexanol (2-EH) is a low-volatility solvent that readily forms esters with a wide variety of acids. One of its key advantages is that it is a non-Hazardous Air Pollutant (non-HAP) solvent, making it environmentally favourable for many applications. Furthermore, 2-ethylhexanol improves the flow and gloss of baking finishes, rendering it valuable for use in coatings and surface treatments.

CAS 104-76-7 2-EH Chemical is also called a plasticizer alcohol which is an industry term for C6 to C13 alcohols that are primarily used as chemical intermediates for the plasticizer production. With a percentage share of about 70%, plasticizers are by far the largest end-use segment for 2-EH. They provide flexibility to normally rigid and brittle PVC, and are used in the manufacturing of consumer goods, such as toys, cling film, flooring, cable insulation, and medical tubing.
