Description: Propylene glycol methyl ether is produced through the reaction of propylene oxide with methanol, serving as a versatile solvent with balanced evaporation rate and excellent coupling properties. As a low-odor, low-toxicity glycol ether (TLV 100ppm), it is widely used in water-based coatings (enhances latex coalescence), inkjet inks (prevents nozzle clogging), and semiconductor cleaning (leaves minimal residues). The solvent demonstrates superior solubility for resins and dyes compared to ethanol.
