Applications & Uses
Description
n-Butyl glycidyl ether is a reactive diluent used to reduce viscosity of epoxy res ins Bisphenol A type.
Uses
Viscosity-reducing agent, acid acceptor for solvents, chemical intermediate
Uses
Uses include the roles of viscosity-reducing agent for easier handling of conventional epoxy resins, acid acceptor for stabilizing chlorinated solvents, and chemical intermediate. Some curing agents may produce hazardous polymerizations in large quantities.
General Description
Colorless to pale yellow liquid with a strong, slightly unpleasant odor. Flash point approximately 164°F. Denser than water. Vapors are heavier than air. Vapors may irritate the nose, throat and respiratory tract. Ingestion or inhalation may cause central nervous system depression. Liquid contact may severely irritate the eyes and skin. Prolonged contact with the skin may cause defatting and drying.
