DOWANOL DPnP Glycol Ether
CAS Number: 29911-27-1
EINECS (EU): 249-949-4
DOWANOL DPnP glycol ether has a slower evaporation rate than DOWANOL PnP glycol ether, and it is slightly more hydrophobic.
Yet overall, DOWANOL DPnP glycol ether has a near-midrange balance between hydrophobic and hydrophilic character, and it offers significant water solubility.
DOWANOL DPnP glycol ether is a good choice in coatings; it offers very good coalescing performance in blends with more hydrophobic materials such as DOWANOL PPh or PnB glycol ethers.
DOWANOL DPnP glycol ether can also be blended with other materials to replace Butyl CELLOSOLVE™ glycol ether (formerly known as DOWANOL EB glycol ether).
DOWANOL DPnP glycol ether is a glycol ether that offers near-midrange balance between hydrophobic and hydrophilic character, as well as offering significant water solubility.
DOWANOL DPnP glycol ether is a slow-evaporating glycol ether with an excellent balance of hydrophilic and hydrophobic character; provides outstanding coalescing and film properties.
DOWANOL DPnP is a slow evaporating glycol ether solvent from Dow Chemicals.
DOWANOL DPnP glycol ether is based on dipropylene glycol n-propyl ether and provides an excellent balance of hydrophilic and hydrophobic properties.
DOWANOL DPnP is a dipropylene glycol n-propyl ether-based solvent from Dow that offers a slower evaporation rate and slightly higher hydrophobicity than DOWANOL™ PnP.
DOWANOL DPnP glycol ether has a near mid-range balance of hydrophobic and hydrophilic properties with significant water solubility compared to other glycol ethers.
DOWANOL DPnP is an excellent performance glycol ether solvent when used in coatings as it offers outstanding coalescing properties in blends with more hydrophobic glycol there such as DOWANOL™ PnB.
DOWANOL DPnP glycol ether can also be blended with other materials to displace or replace Butyl CELLOSOLVE™ glycol ether (formerly known as DOWANOL EB glycol ether).
DOWANOL DPnP is also used to reduce surface tension and improve the solvency of coatings and cleaning formulations.
DOWANOL DPnP glycol ethers low toxicity, low odor, and good chemical stability make it suitable for a wide array of applications.
Glycol Ether DPnP solvent is a colorless liquid with low toxicity and a low odor.
DOWANOL DPnP glycol ethers low evaporation rate coupled with its hydrophilic and hydrophobic nature makes Glycol Ether DPnP a good coupling agent and solvent.
DOWANOL DPnP glycol ether is moderately water soluble, yet an efficient surface tension reducer.

DOWANOL DPnB glycol ether is a relatively slow-evaporating solvent which is one of our most efficient coalescents in water-borne latex systems.
DOWANOL DPnB glycol ether combines a number of properties that contribute to very high latex film quality:
1) high polymer plasticizing efficiency,
2) large molecular size and therefore greater polymer mobility contribution,
3) strong partitioning to the polymer phase, and 4) relatively slow evaporation rate.
DOWANOL DPnB glycol ether is compatible with many different resin types.
DOWANOL DPnB glycol ether also provides excellent surface tension lowering ability, and is useful in cleaning products by itself or when blended with other products such as DOWANOL DPM glycol ether.
Used alone in cold metal cleaning, DOWANOL DPnB glycol ether is a good solvent for removing oils and greases.
