DIISOBUTYL KETONE - EASTMAN

DIISOBUTYL KETONE - EASTMAN is a slow-evaporating, low-density solvent with good activity for various synthetic resins, including nitrocellulose, rosin esters, phenolics, hydrocarbons, alkyds, polyesters, and acrylics. It serves as a retarder solvent to enhance flow and minimize humidity blushing. Its low density and surface tension allow formulators to create high-solids coatings with low VOC content and excellent flow and leveling properties.
