DOWANOL DPMA GLYCOL ETHER ACETATE - DOW glycol ether stands as a remarkable alternative to DOWANOL DIPROPYLENE GLYCOL METHYL ETHER ACETATE, boasting similar properties while offering distinct advantages. Notably, it features a slower evaporation rate and a lower flammability rating, classified as Class III combustible for ease of handling, storage, and transportation. As one of the lowest viscosity members within the Dowanolâ„¢ glycol ethers family, contains an acetate group capping its molecule, reducing polarity and solvent viscosity. This feature, coupled with the elimination of reactive hydrogen, renders it an excellent solvent choice for urethanes and other proton-sensitive systems. Moreover, glycol ether exhibits outstanding active solvency across a wide spectrum of resin types, including acrylics, epoxies, alkyds, polyesters, and more, making it a versatile solution for various applications.

GLYCOL ETHER DPM ACETATE is a product known for its easy-to-handle characteristics and excellent viscosity control, making it highly suitable for various cleaning applications where solvent properties are required.

DOWANOL PMA GLYCOL ETHER ACETATE STD is the glycol ether with the lowest viscosity among the entire line of Dowanol glycol ethers (1.1 centipoise at 25°C), offering exceptional viscosity reduction. With the remaining OH group capped with an acetate group, its polarity is reduced, contributing to viscosity reduction. This acetate group also eliminates reactive hydrogen from the OH group, making Dowanol PMA an excellent solvent choice for urethanes and other proton-sensitive systems. This relatively fast-evaporating glycol ether sets a performance standard in high-solids, solvent-borne systems, providing excellent active solvency for a wide range of resin types, including acrylics, epoxies, alkyds, polyesters, and more.
