Global Diethylene Glycol Monomethyl Ether Market: Overview
Diethylene glycol monomethyl ether is a product derived from ethylene oxide and methanol. Chemically, it is also known as methyl diglycol or 2-hydroxy-2-methoxy-diethyl ether. Commercially, it is known as methyl carbitol. Diethylene glycol monomethyl ether is a solvent which is excellent for application in various resins and pastes. It is a non-volatile solvent and hence, it is used only in special lacquer formulations. It is employed principally in nitrocellulose lacquers so as to improve characteristics of lacquers. It can be easily stabilized with the use of small quantities of additives such as 2, 6-ditert-butyl-4-methylphenol (0.005%). Diethylene glycol monomethyl ether has excellent dilution capacity. It is utilized in the aviation industry as FSII (fuel system icing inhibitor), which is also called anti-icing or dicing agent. It is also employed in the printing ink industry and in the production of ballpoint pen ink.
In addition to uses listed above, diethylene glycol monomethyl ether is used for applications such as architectural coatings, brake fluids, graphic arts, institutional cleaners, process solvents, protective coatings, textile, and wood coatings.
