Products Description
Butyl acetate (cas no 123-86-4) is a colorless and flammable liquid with a pleasant fruity aroma. It is miscible with organic solvents such as alcohols, ketones, and ethers, and is less soluble in water compared to lower homologues.
Butyl acetate is an excellent organic solvent with good solubility for cellulose acetate butyrate, ethyl cellulose, chlorinated rubber, polystyrene, methyl acrylic resin, and many natural resins such as tannin extract.
Butyl acetate (cas no 123-86-4) is used in paint as a versatile solvent to dissolve resins and polymers, a thinner, and an additive to improve flow and gloss
At GNEE BIO, we supply high-purity industrial-grade N-Butyl Acetate with stable quality and reliable batch consistency. Our products comply with international quality standards and are supported by complete technical documentation, including COA, SDS, and TDS, making them suitable for global industrial manufacturers and distributors.

Applications
Butyl Acetate For Paint:
N-Butyl Acetate is a strong solvent for a wide range of materials used in paints, including resins, oils
It is used as a thinner for paints, lacquers, and varnishes to adjust viscosity and drying speed.
Butyl Acetate Other Applications:
- Adhesives – Adjusts viscosity and enhances adhesion.
- Cleaning Agents – Effective degreaser for metals/electronics.
- Flavor & Fragrance – Fruity note used in food flavorings (banana, apple).
- Pharmaceutical Extraction – Solvent for extraction processes.
Key Advantages
- Evaporation Rate: Butyl acetate solvent dries at a rate that allows coating films to level before the surface sets, which can help reduce orange peel, solvent popping, and moisture blushing.
- Solvency: Dissolves acrylic, nitrocellulose, alkyd, polyurethane, and other coating resins, so it can be used in coating, ink, and adhesive formulations.
- Batch Consistency: Manufactured under quality control to keep composition and impurity levels consistent from batch to batch.
- Odor Level: Has a lower odor level than many aromatic hydrocarbon solvents, so it is used in industrial coatings, printing inks, and adhesive products.
- Biodegradability: Readily biodegradable and used as a substitute for some aromatic solvents in formulations.
