Product Data and Technical Information
Corporate Statement
Propylene Glycol Ethers (PGEs) are high-performance industrial solvents for paints and coatings, cleaners, inks, and a variety of other applications. These P-series glycol ethers have become the solvents of choice for reformulations and new product development. Propylene glycol ethers are based on reacting propylene oxide with varying chain alcohols.
Benefits & Applications
Glycol Ether PNP demonstrates good solvency for coating resins. It is used as a co-solvent for waterborne coatings. Glycol EtherPNP has excellent coalescing properties and promotes stability in waterborne coatings.
Glycol Ether PNP is a good substitute for E-series solvents, EP (ethylene glycol propyl ether) and EB (ethylene glycol butyl ether).
Glycol Ether PNP can be used in floor wax strippers and in many types of hard-surface cleaners, such as glass, metal, tile, ceramic, and general-purpose cleaners. Glycol Ether PNP facilitates the removal of water-soluble or water-dispersible soils. It is a good coupling solvent for many oils.
The properties of Glycol Ether PNP also support uses in agriculture, cosmetics, electronics, ink, textile and adhesive products. Specific end uses may require approval by appropriate regulatory agencies.
