1. Coatings and Inks Industry

Solvents and Film-forming Additives:

Used in water-based latex paints and industrial anti-corrosion coatings to improve fluidity and adhesion, especially suitable for winter construction (lowering the freezing point).

Regulates drying speed in printing inks, prevents plate clogging, and enhances ink gloss.

Typical Cases:

PGBE is added to exterior wall coatings of brands such as Nippon Paint and Dulux to enhance film-forming performance in low-temperature environments.

2. Cleaners and Degreasers

Metal Surface Treatment:

Formulates water-based degreasers to dissolve oils and waxes on metal surfaces (e.g., cleaning automotive parts), and can be used in combination with surfactants.

Household Cleaning Products:

Added to glass cleaners and kitchen grease cleaners to improve cleaning efficiency, with a mild residual odor.

3. Electronics and Industrial Fields

Electronic Chemicals:

Used as a photoresist solvent for semiconductor wafer cleaning and circuit board etching processes, requiring a purity of ≥99.5% (electronic grade).

Fiber and Leather Processing:

Acts as a coupling agent in textile printing and dyeing to promote dye penetration; improves coating flexibility in leather finishing agents.
