Product Description
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.
PNB glycol ether also provides excellent surface-tension lowering ability.
In coatings PNB offers good coalescing ability in systems requiring fast evaporation
