Features Of Eastman n-Butyl Acetate

  1. High-purity ester solvent with low water content for consistent formulation performance.

  2. Excellent solvency for cellulose acetate, nitrocellulose, and acrylic resins.

  3. Low toxicity profile and favorable occupational exposure limits (OEL) relative to alternative ketone or aromatic solvents.

  4. Balanced evaporation rate—faster than ethyl acetate but slower than acetone—enabling optimal film leveling and drying control.

  5. Readily biodegradable and compliant with major global VOC regulations, including EU REACH and US EPA SNAP.

Typical Applications Of Eastman n-Butyl Acetate

  1. Coatings: Solvent carrier in automotive refinish, industrial maintenance, and wood coatings.

  2. Inks: Key solvent in gravure and flexographic printing inks for packaging films and labels.

  3. Adhesives: Active ingredient in pressure-sensitive and laminating adhesives for flexible packaging.

  4. Chemical synthesis: Reaction medium and extractant in pharmaceutical and agrochemical intermediate manufacturing.

  5. Consumer products: Carrier solvent in aerosol-based polishes, cleaners, and decorative finishes.
