Ethylene glycol diacetate
Description
Ethylene glycol diacetate (CAS 111-55-7 ), also known as glycol diacetate or EGDA, is a diester solvent used across industrial, cosmetic, and flavoring applications. It functions as a slow-evaporating carrier solvent and curing agent, offering controlled release characteristics that suit formulations requiring extended processing windows. In plastics and polymer processing, EGDA acts as a reactive diluent and cross-linking aid in coatings, adhesives, and resin systems where controlled cure rates are critical. Personal care formulators incorporate it as a carrier solvent in fragrance concentrates and cosmetic bases, where its low volatility supports even distribution of active ingredients. The flavor and fragrance industry uses EGDA as a flavoring agent with a mild fruity ester note, suitable for confectionery and beverage applications. Industrial coatings manufacturers also select it as a high-boiling coalescing solvent to improve film formation in water-based and solvent-borne systems. Ethylene glycol diacetate is supplied as a clear liquid in drum and IBC quantities. Technical grade is the standard offering for industrial solvent and coatings applications. Flavor-grade material meeting purity specifications for food and fragrance use is available from select suppliers to ensure compliance with global regulatory requirements.
