Methyl glycol ethers are products of excellent solvency and low volatility, due to their mild odor characteristic, they are hygroscopic, have a high boiling point and a very low freezing point, low rates of attack by rubber. They are very common solvents in the world of paints. They solubilize oily soils and help reduce the surface tension of water. Dye penetration makes them attractive for non-grain-raising wood stains, alcohol-type stains, and textile dye pastes. Suitable for dyes, oils, fats, waxes and resins. They are also a coalescing aid for polyvinyl acetate latex..
