Eastman Butyl Acetate Solvent
Categories:	Fluid; Solvent
Material Notes:	CAS No. 123-86-4 Product Description: Eastman™ Butyl Acetate is a medium boiling ester solvent. A colorless liquid with a fruity odor, butyl acetate is an active solvent for film-formers such as cellulose acetate butyrate, nitrocellulose, polyesters, epoxies, alkyds, vinyl copolymers, and acrylic resins. It is widely used in nitrocellulose lacquers, readily dissolving the resin and imparting good flow properties. Eastman™ Butyl Acetate has an evaporation rate of 1.0, which provides a quick drying lacquer without inducing blushing under normal circumstances. It is a urethane grade solvent and is widely used in 2-K polyurethane coatings to help balance flow and dry time. Application/Uses: Aerosols Coatings - Automotive OEM Coatings - Automotive Refinish Coatings - Can and Coil Coatings - General Industrial Coatings - Industrial Maintenance and Marine Coatings - Industrial Wood Coatings - Transportation Cosmetics and Personal Care – Fragrance Carrier and Nail Care Letdown Solvent - Coating Resins Process Solvent - Pharmaceuticals Key Attributes: ~ Good solvent activity High electrical resistance Inert - Nonfood use Low MIR value Low surface tension Low water solubility Medium evaporation rate Mild odor Non-HAP Non-SARA REACH compliant Readily biodegradable Urethane grade Information provided by Eastman
