Application

Our bio-based replacement for Butyl Cellosolve is perfect for cleaning in electronics, as well as ink formulations.
It is a precision cleaning solvent, dries completely, no film residue. It is also easy and inexpensive to distill/recycle, whilst no environmentally hazardous ingredients and no Hazardous Air Pollutants.
It is 20% to 30% more efficient in viscosity reduction than Butyl Cellosolve. It is an excellent solvency for ink formulations with high loading capacity.

General description

ElectroGreen® solvents—our bio-based alternatives that are meticulously engineered to meet the stringent requirements of electronics and energy applications, offering a solution to replace fossil-based solvents.
Our tailored products offer:
  • High purity (GC)
  • Low residue in evaporation (RESE)
  • Low metal content (ICP)
  • Low water content (KF)
  • Low acidity
  • Low toxicity and VOC
  • Accessible cost
This ElectroGreen® solvent is made of bio-based (corn/beets derived) safer alternatives to replace synthetic butyl cellosolve fossil-based solvent with specifications tailored for electronics and energy applications. All our ElectroGreen® solvents line are derived from a renewable resource(verified through C14 ASTM D6866-16 testing). We are committed to bringing you Greener Alternative Products, which adhere to one or more of The 12 Principles of Greener Chemistry. Click here for more information.

This solvent blend consists of Ethyl lactate 70-90%, hexan-1-ol 30-50%.

Preparation Note

To ensure low water content, handle under inert conditions. Product should be refrigerated upon receipt.
