- aqueous coatings
printing inks
- Advantages
- Possesses a mild odor
May form peroxides in the presence of atmospheric oxygen
Improves the flow and extends the drying time of coatings
improves brushability of alkyd resin paints and reduces their viscosity
Significantly lowers the minimum film forming temperature (MFFT)
improves flow in many physically drying paint systems
improves the evaporation behaviour of the volatile constituents
miscibility with most common organic solvents and water
