Ethyl PROXITOL

Ethyl PROXITOL is a colourless, mild smelling and slightly hygroscopic liquid. It is completely miscible with water and many organic solvents. Solvents from the PROXITOL range contain two functional groups, which makes them adaptive to their environment. It is this bi-functionality that gives these solvents their great versatility. Ethyl PROXITOL has a solvent power similar to that of Butyl OXITOL.


Methyl DIPROXITOL

Methyl DIPROXITOL is a colourless, hygroscopic, high boiling liquid with mild odour. It is miscible in any proportion with water and many organic solvents and has good solvent power for nitrocellulose and dyestuffs.


Methyl PROXITOL

Methyl PROXITOL is a colourless, hygroscopic solvent with a volatility, viscosity and solvent power similar to those of ethylene oxide-based glycol ethers, e.g. Methyl OXITOL and ethyl OXITOL.


Methyl PROXITOL acetate

Methyl PROXITOL acetate is a colourless, neutral propylene oxide-based glycol ether acetate with a mild odour and a volatility, viscosity and solvent power similar to those of ethylene glycol-based glycol ether acetates, e.g. methyl and ethyl OXITOL acetates.
