SUGGESTED USES

Ethyldiglycol Acetate's most peculiar property is its complete solubility in water which gives it a particular position among all high boiling solvents. Its most important use is in printing inks where it gives good adhesion to the rollers without spoiling their rubber coating.

Ethyldiglycol Acetate is also used in nitrocellulose paints, PVA latex, as a coalescing agent and lacquers for printed fabrics.
