2-n-Butoxyethyl acetate is used as a solvent for nitrocellulose lacquers, enamels, coating additives, epoxy resins, and varnishes. It is a film coalescing aid for polyvinyl acetate latex. Further, it stimulates the release of prostaglandin E(2), an arachidonic acid metabolite, in human epidermal keratinocytes. In addition to this, it serves as an ingredient in ink removers and spot removers.
This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
