DESCRIPTION

Propyl CELLOSOLVE Solvent is a high solvency glycol ether with excellent coupling and coalescent properties. 
Propyl CELLOSOLVE Solvent is useful in printing and other specialized coatings applications and is a frequent choice for replacement of CELLOSOLVE Solvent. 
Propyl CELLOSOLVE Solvent's fast evaporation, high water solubility and active solvency make Propyl CELLOSOLVE Solvent ideal for a variety of cleaning applications.

Propyl CELLOSOLVE Solvent (Ethylene Glycol Monopropyl Ether) is a colorless, water-miscible solvent providing a slow evaporation rate, good viscosity control in waterborne resins, and high flash point. 
Propyl CELLOSOLVE Solvent has a milder, less detectable odor than most other glycol ethers, enhancing its use in coatings when mild odor is desirable. 

Propyl CELLOSOLVE Solvent is completely water miscible over a wide range of temperatures. 
Also, Propyl CELLOSOLVE Solvent can also be used to develop customized aqueous cleaners.

CAS number of Propyl CELLOSOLVE Solvent is 2807-30-9. 
Molar mass of Propyl CELLOSOLVE Solvent is 104.15 g/mol.
Propyl CELLOSOLVE Solvent is a solvent based on alkyl ether.

Propyl CELLOSOLVE Solvent is an oily colourless odourless liquid.
Additionally, Propyl CELLOSOLVE Solvent is liquid; colorless; mild, rancid odor. 
Propyl CELLOSOLVE Solvent floats and mixes with water.

Ground/bond container and receiving equipment.
Use explosion-proof electrical/ ventilating/ lighting equipment.
Use only non-sparking tools.
Take precautionary measures against static discharge.
Wash skin thoroughly after handling.
Wear protective gloves/ eye protection/ face protection.

-Response

IF ON SKIN (or hair): Take off immediately all contaminated clothing. 
Rinse skin with water/shower.
IF IN EYES: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes. 
Remove contact lenses, if present and easy to do. 
Continue rinsing.
If eye irritation persists: Get medical advice/ attention.
Wash contaminated clothing before reuse.
In case of fire: Use dry sand, dry chemical or alcohol-resistant foam to extinguish.

Keep cool.

-Disposal
Dispose of contents/ container to an approved waste disposal plant.


-Description of first aid measures

-General advice:

First Aid responders should pay attention to self-protection and use the recommended protective clothing (chemical resistant gloves, splash protection). 

-Inhalation: 

Move person to fresh air; if effects occur, consult a physician.

-Skin contact: 

Immediately flush skin with water while removing contaminated clothing and shoes. 
Get medical attention if symptoms occur. 
Wash clothing before reuse. 
Destroy contaminated leather items such as shoes, belts, and watchbands. 
Suitable emergency safety shower facility should be immediately available.

-Eye contact:
 
Immediately flush eyes with water; remove contact lenses, if present, after the first 5 minutes, then continue flushing eyes for at least 15 minutes. 
Obtain medical attention without delay, preferably from an ophthalmologist.
