1.Product Property
Ethylene glycol butyl ether is one of the important derivatives of ethylene oxide (EO). It is a green and environmentally friendly solvent, a colorless liquid, not easily volatile, toxic, and can be miscible with water and hydrocarbon solvents such as linseed oil. It has extremely strong solubility for synthetic rubber.
