    Technical Data Sheet

    Product Name

    DOWANOL PnB

    Synonyms

    Propylene glycol n-butyl ether; 3-Butoxypropan-2-ol; propylene glycol monobutyl ether.

    Chemical Formula

    C4H9OCH2CH(CH3)OH (major isomer)


    Product Description

    DOWANOL PnB glycol ether is a fast-evaporating, hydrophobic glycol ether with


    high solvency and excellent coupling abilities. DOWANOL PnB glycol ether is
    extensively used in heavy-duty cleaning formulations. It does an excellent job of
    solvating and coupling hydrophobic greases and oils in household as well as
    industrial formulations. It is partly water soluble and miscible with most organic
    solvents. DOWANOL PnB glycol ether also provides excellent surface-tension
    lowering ability. In coatings DOWANOL PnB offers good coalescing ability in
    systems requiring fast evaporation.

    Applications

    Coupling agent and solvent in household and industrial cleaners, grease and paint
    removers, metal cleaners, and hard surface cleaners.
    Effective coupling agent and efficient solvent for water-reducible coatings.
    Effective coalescent for lowering minimum film formation temperature (MFFT) in
    water-borne latex coatings.
    Active solvent for solvent-based coatings.
    Chemical intermediate for the production of epoxides, acid ester derivatives,
    solvents, and plasticizers.
    Effective coupling agent in waterbased agricultural formulations.
