Ensinger PEI
Eastman 2-Ethylhexanol Solvent
Categories: Fluid; Solvent

Material Notes: CAS No. 104-76-7

Product Description: Eastman™ 2-Ethylhexanol is an eight-carbon branched chain oxo alcohol having a high boiling point and slow evaporation rate. It is a versatile solvent featuring excellent reactivity as a chemical intermediate. It serves as a chain terminator in synthesizing condensation polymers and as an intermediate for plasticizers. Eastman™ 2-Ethylhexanol has low volatility and enhances the flow and gloss of baking enamels. It is also used as dispersing agent for pigment pastes.

Application/Uses:

  • Chemical Intermediate - Acrylates, Ester Solvents, Glycol Ethers, Plasticizers
  • Coatings - Automotive OEM
  • Coatings - Automotive Refinish
  • Coatings - Can and Coil
  • Coatings - General Industrial
  • Coatings - Industrial Maintenance and Marine
  • Coatings - Industrial Wood
  • Coatings - Misc. (Defoamer and Wetting Agent)
  • Coatings - Transportation
Key Attributes:
  • Defoaming, wetting, and dispersing characteristics
  • Excellent reactivity as an intermediate
  • Improves flow and gloss in baking finishes
