1-ethoxy-2-propanol

1-Ethoxy-2-propanol (CAS 1569-02-4 ), commercially known as propylene glycol ethyl ether or PGEE, is a glycol ether solvent used across coatings, personal care, and pharmaceutical manufacturing. It delivers controlled evaporation rates and broad solubility, making it a practical choice for formulations requiring compatibility with both polar and non-polar systems. In industrial and architectural coatings, it functions as a coalescing solvent. This chemical improves film formation and flow in waterborne and solvent-based systems. Adhesive and sealant manufacturers use it to adjust viscosity and open time in reactive and pressure-sensitive formulations. Personal care producers incorporate it into lotions, gels, and sprays as a solvent-carrier for active ingredients and fragrance components. In pharmaceutical manufacturing, it supports the processing of topical formulations. Low toxicity and skin compatibility are procurement priorities for these specialized applications. 1-Ethoxy-2-propanol is supplied as a clear liquid in standard packaging including drums and IBCs. Bulk quantities are available for industrial buyers. Technical grade is the most common commercial specification, with high-purity grades available for pharmaceutical and cosmetic applications. Buyers should confirm purity levels and water content specifications when sourcing for sensitive formulations. This ensures the product meets the necessary performance criteria for high-end manufacturing processes. Contact us for supply of 1-ethoxy-2-propanol Request Quote
