HEXYL CARBITOL SOLVENT


CAS NO:112-59-4
EC NO:203-988-3

Hexyl CARBITOL Solvent, like Hexyl CELLOSOLVE Solvent, displays a strong
hydrocarbontype solvency. The increased ether functionality of Hexyl CARBITOL Solvent provides greater solubility with water than Hexyl CELLOSOLVE Solvent.

Hexyl CARBITOL Solvent is a slow evaporating solvent that partitions primarily into the polymer phase of a waterborne coating and reduces minimum filming temperature. 

Hexyl CARBITOL Solvent can be used with associative thickeners to enhance application properties such as brushability or roll application in high performance coatings.
Hexyl CARBITOL Solvents slow evaporation and excellent solvency characteristics contribute good flow and leveling to high solids coatings during the drying/ curing cycle. This allows uniform diffusion of the solvent through the film and maximizes appearance and film properties by reducing the occurrence of defects due to solvent-pop and air entrapment.

A slow evaporating solvent that partitions primarily into the polymer phase of a waterborne coating and reduces minimum filming temperature. 
Hexyl CARBITOL Solvent can be used with associative thickeners to enhance application properties such as brushability or roll application in high performance coatings. 
Hexyl CARBITOL Solvent functions as a coalescing aid in waterborne emulsion or dispersion coatings and is used in cleaners to remove greasy soils. Also used in metal deco inks.

Uses:
-Cosmetics
-Cleaners
-Textiles
-Waterborne coatings
-Cleaning
-Printing inks
-Silk-screen process
-Metal-deco inks

Benefits:
-Excellent solvency
-Great chemical stability
-Compatible with water and a number of organic solvents
-Low vapor pressure addressing VOC concerns
-Listed on CleanGredients (max use 1.67%); pre-approved to meet the U.S. EPA Safer -Choice Standard
-Excellent coalescing aid in waterborne emulsion or dispersion coatings
-Limited water-solubility and slow evaporation
-Provides good flow and levelling
-Removes both water-soluble and greasy (water-insoluble) soils

 Acts as a slow evaporating solvent. Provides good flow and leveling. Offers greater solubility with water. Promotes uniform diffusion, eliminates solvent-pop and air entrapment. Reduces minimum film forming temperature. Enhances brushability and roll application in high performance coatings. Used as coalescing aid in waterborne emulsion or dispersion coatings, and in metal deco inks.

Hexyl CELLOSOLVE Solvent is a high boiling point, slow evaporating rate solvent with excellent solvency characteristics. 
Hexyl CELLOSOLVE Solvent has the characteristic structure of glycol ethers and contains both ether and alcohol functional groups in the same molecule. As a result, it provides unique cleaning power for removal of both water-soluble and greasy (water insoluble) soils.

Used as a solvent for coatings and degreasing.
