Butyl Acetate is used as a solvent in the production of lacquers and other products.
Material Use:
Ethyl Acetate is commonly used as a solvent in coatings, adhesives, and inks, and in the formulation of various chemical products. It is also utilized in cleaning mixtures, as well as a carrier solvent for resins and paints in construction and industrial applications.
System Components:
This is a single-component solvent material. It is not used as part of a multi-component system but may be a part of solvent systems in broader chemical formulations involving coatings or adhesives.
Applications:
Ethyl Acetate is primarily used for cleaning, thinning, or dissolving formulations during application or manufacturing. In construction and coating systems, it is often found as a volatile carrier in primers, topcoats, or adhesives.
Application Details:
While the product’s TDS does not specify detailed application procedures, standard solvent handling and safety procedures apply. Ethyl Acetate is highly volatile and should be used in well-ventilated environments. Proper PPE must be worn.
Special Notes:
- Purity: Minimum 99.8% by weight.
- Water Content: Max 300 ppm.
- Acidity (as Acetic Acid): Max 50 ppm.
- Color (Pt-Co scale): Max 10.
- Density @ 20C: 0.9000.903 g/cm.
- Distillation Range: 75.7C to 78.0C.
- Ethanol Content: Max 300 ppm.
- Non-Volatile Matter: Max 5 mg/100ml.
- Residual Odor: None.
- Temperature and Environmental Limits: Not explicitly stated, but due to its volatility, it should be stored and used away from heat or flame and in temperatures that prevent evaporation loss.
- UV Resistance: Not applicable.
- Coverage: Not applicable directly; this solvent is not a coating material and is not measured by coverage but rather by volume for dissolving or thinning purposes.
- Storage Notes: Physical properties are not monitored constantly, indicating potential variability and the importance of using fresh product batches.
