Application
1. Industrial cleaning agent
Used for metal degreasing, electronic component cleaning, printed circuit board cleaning, etc., it can effectively dissolve grease, resin and flux residues.
Replaces traditional highly toxic solvents (such as toluene, acetone).
2. Paints and inks
As a cosolvent or film-forming aid, it adjusts the evaporation rate, leveling and glossiness of the paint.
Used as a diluent in UV curing inks to improve adhesion.
3. Personal care and cosmetics
Used in lotions, sunscreens, shampoos, etc., as a moisturizer or flavor carrier, mild and non-irritating to the skin.
4. Agriculture and pharmaceuticals
As an auxiliary component of pesticide emulsifiers or drug solvents, it enhances the permeability of active ingredients.
