preparation
Ethylene oxide reacts with ethanol, the reaction product is neutralized with sodium hydroxide after recovery of ethanol, fractionated to obtain crude product, refined, collected 133.5 ~ 135.5ºC fraction to obtain the finished product.
use
It can be used as a solvent for nitrocelluloid, fake paint, natural and synthetic resins, etc. It can also be used as a leather coloring agent, emulsion stabilizer, paint thinner, paint stripper and dyeing agent for textile fibers. In addition, it is also an intermediate for the production of acetate.
Ethylene glycol monoethyl ether is a polar solvent with high solubility and low volatility. It can form stable solutions with many organic and inorganic substances. Due to its good solubility and low toxicity, ethylene glycol monoethyl ether is widely used in solvents, surfactants, stabilizers and lubricants in the chemical industry.
