Ethylene glycol monobutyl ether acetate is a colorless liquid with a fruity odor. It is also known as 2-Butoxyethanol acetate; 1-Acetoxy-2-Butoxyethane; Acetic Acid 2-Butoxyethyl Ester; Ethylene Glycol Butyl Ether Acetate; short for BGA. It is a kind of binary alcohol ether ester solvent with high boiling point and containing multi-functional groups. It can be used as a coalescing aid for latex paint. It has excellent solubility for a variety of paints, which makes it widely used in colorful coatings and lotion coatings.
Applications of BGA CAS 112-07-2:
1. Coatings
BGA is a common solvent in coatings. In solvent - based coatings, it dissolves resins and pigments for smooth application. In water - based ones, it's a co - solvent, reducing surface tension for better substrate wetting and adhesion. For latex paints, BGA acts as a coalescing agent, helping polymer particles form a continuous film.
2. Inks
Ethylene glycol monobutyl ether acetate is used as a solvent in printing inks like flexographic and screen - printing ones. BGA controls ink viscosity and drying speed. It also improves ink adhesion to various substrates such as paper and plastic.
3.Electronics
2-Butoxyethyl acetate (BGA) is an effective cleaner for electronic components, removing flux residues. In electronic packaging, it's used as a diluent to adjust the viscosity of encapsulants.
4.Others
In the textile industry, It helps evenly distribute dyes and finishing agents. In the leather industry, it's used in dyes and finishing formulations for better color fastness and finish.
