Features Of Eastman Isobutyl Acetate

  1. Low water solubility for improved phase separation in extraction and coating processes.

  2. Moderate evaporation rate—slower than acetone or ethyl acetate—enabling better film leveling in coatings.

  3. High solvent strength for cellulose esters, acrylics, and vinyl resins without excessive resin swelling.

  4. Low toxicity profile relative to alternative mid-boiling esters, supporting safer industrial handling.

  5. Excellent compatibility with common hydrocarbon diluents and other oxygenated solvents.

Typical Applications Of Eastman Isobutyl Acetate

  1. Acrylic-based architectural and industrial maintenance coatings.

  2. Cellulose nitrate and acetate lacquers for wood finishing and automotive refinish primers.

  3. Solvent carrier in pesticide formulations requiring controlled release and stability.

  4. Component in adhesive systems for flexible packaging laminates.

  5. Extraction solvent for natural flavors and fragrances in food and fragrance manufacturing.
