General description

Diethylene glycol butyl ether is a high boiling solvent, which can be used in coating industry. It can also serve as a dispersant in organosols and can also be used in preparation of plasticizers.

Application

  • Factors Affecting the Adsorption of Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances (PFAS) by Colloidal Activated Carbon.: This study investigates the adsorption characteristics of PFAS by colloidal activated carbon, with a specific focus on the role of various solvents including diethylene glycol butyl ether. The research highlights the solvent′s effectiveness in enhancing adsorption efficiency (Hakimabadi et al., 2023).
  • First Stage of the Development of an Eco-Friendly Detergent Formulation for Efficient Removal of Carbonized Soil.: This research explores the formulation of eco-friendly detergents, demonstrating the use of diethylene glycol butyl ether as a key solvent for effective soil removal. The study underscores its potential in creating sustainable cleaning products (Fernandes et al., 2022).

Questions

1–2 of 2 Questions  
  1. How can I determine the shelf life / expiration / retest date of this product?

    1 answer
    1. If this product has an expiration or retest date, it will be shown on the Certificate of Analysis (COA, CofA). If there is no retest or expiration date listed on the product's COA, we do not have suitable stability data to determine a shelf life. For these products, the only date on the COA will be the release date; a retest, expiration, or use-by-date will not be displayed.
      For all products, we recommend handling per defined conditions as printed in our product literature and website product descriptions. We recommend that products should be routinely inspected by customers to ensure they perform as expected.
      For products without retest or expiration dates, our standard warranty of 1 year from the date of shipment is applicable.
      For more information, please refer to the Product Dating Information document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/418/501/product-dating-information-06-25-mk.pdf

  2. How is shipping temperature determined? And how is it related to the product storage temperature?

    1 answer
    1. Products may be shipped at a different temperature than the recommended long-term storage temperature. If the product quality is sensitive to short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped on wet or dry-ice. If the product quality is NOT affected by short-term exposure to conditions other than the recommended long-term storage, it will be shipped at ambient temperature. As shipping routes are configured for minimum transit times, shipping at ambient temperature helps control shipping costs for our customers. For more information, please refer to the Storage and Transport Conditions document: https://www.sigmaaldrich.com/deepweb/assets/sigmaaldrich/marketing/global/documents/316/622/storage-transport-conditions-mk.pdf
