Celanese 50000457 n-Butyl Acetate
Categories: Fluid; Solvent
Material Notes: CAS Number: 74-89-5

n-Butyl Acetate is a neutral, colorless liquid with a characteristic odor. It is miscible with organic solvents in all proportions.

n-Butyl Acetate is an excellent solvent for nitrocellulose, cellulose ethers, celluloid, chlorinated rubber, polyvinyl acetates, polyvinyl chloride, vinyl acetate/vinyl chloride/dicarboxylic acid copolymers, polystyrene (coatings), polyacrylates, most natural resins, plasticizers, oils and fats.
Partially soluble substances: Urea-formaldehyde resins and asphalt.

Insoluble substances: Cellulose acetate, congo copal, shellac, polyvinyl butyrals and polyvinyl carbazole.

Substances that swell in n-Butyl Acetate: Cellulose acetate butyrate, polyisobutylene, rubber and polyvinyl formal.

The excellent dissolving power of n-Butyl Acetate, its good volatility, high solubility (especially in a mixture with alcohols) and resistance to blushing of drying paint films make it one of the most important medium-volatility solvents for paints, coatings, printing inks and aerosol sprays. n-Butyl Acetate may also be used in combination with lacquers. It can be employed for example for the isocyanate component in catalyzed lacquers. Because of its pleasant odor, n-Butyl Acetate may be used in the manufacture of essences, perfumes, stain removers and glazed paper. It is also used as process solvent or as an extraction solvent in the chemical and pharmaceutical industries and as solvent for adhesives.
