Applications
Coatings and Inks Industry
High-boiling solvent: Used in water-based coatings, baking paints, and printing inks to regulate evaporation rate, improve film uniformity, and prevent "boiling" or "orange peel" defects.
Compatibility: Dissolves acrylic resins, epoxy resins, polyurethanes, etc., widely used in automotive paints and industrial anticorrosive coatings.
Electronics and Semiconductor Industry
Cleaning agent: Removes photoresist residues, oils, and flux, suitable for ultrasonic cleaning of precision electronic components.
Electrolyte solvent: High-boiling polar solvent in lithium-ion batteries (used with lithium salts like LiPF6).
Textiles and Dyeing
Dyeing auxiliary: Enhances uniform penetration of disperse dyes into fibers and improves color fastness;
Softener intermediate: Used in synthesizing polyester textile softeners.
Cosmetics and Personal Care
Skincare solvent: Dissolves lipophilic active ingredients (e.g., vitamin E) in serums and lotions, enhancing formulation wettability.
Other Applications
Metalworking fluids: As a coupling agent and rust inhibitor in cutting fluids;
Polymer synthesis: As a chain extender or crosslinking agent in polyether-based polyurethanes.
Safety and Storage
Health Hazards:
Inhalation/ingestion: High-concentration vapors may irritate the respiratory tract, causing headache and nausea; ingestion may suppress the central nervous system.
Skin/eye contact: Liquid may cause mild skin irritation; flush eyes immediately with plenty of water if splashed.
Environmental Impact: Low biodegradability; avoid discharge into natural water bodies; toxic to aquatic organisms (LC50 fish: >100 mg/L).
Fire/Explosion Risk: Combustible but not highly flammable; may burn when exposed to high heat or strong oxidizers; explosion limit (V/V): 0.8-3.2% (at 143°C).
Handling and Storage:
Protective equipment: Wear nitrile gloves and safety goggles; use in well-ventilated areas.
Storage conditions: Store in sealed containers in a cool, dry place, away from fire sources and oxidizers; packaged in iron or plastic drums (common specification: 200 kg/drum).
