3. Core Product Advantages

1. Slow uniform volatilization & excellent film leveling
   High boiling point 217ºC avoids coating defects such as pinholes, sagging and orange peel during spraying and roller coating, greatly improving paint film gloss, hardness and outdoor weather resistance.

1. Dual hydrophilic-lipophilic solubility
   Perfectly disperse resin particles and inorganic pigments in water-based systems, lower minimum film-forming temperature without damaging paint adhesion and scratch resistance.

1. Low odor & eco-friendly low VOC
   Mild non-irritating smell during construction, meets global low-VOC emission standards for automotive paint and furniture coating, improving workshop working environment.

1. Two differentiated grades to match different demands
   Economical industrial grade for mass bulk procurement; ultra-pure electronic grade for precision electronic cleaning and lithium battery manufacturing, helping customers reasonably control raw material cost.

1. Full EU REACH registration
   Complete REACH registration documents provided for all batches, avoid cargo detention at EU customs and save buyers expensive third-party registration fees.

1. Stable stock & fast delivery
   Spot goods can be delivered within 3-7 working days after deposit receipt; customized electronic grade needs 7-12 working days production cycle. Annual framework long-term contracts support fixed monthly pricing to hedge upstream propylene oxide raw material price fluctuation.

1. Full set free dangerous goods export documents
   MSDS, batch COA, UN packing certificate, maritime declaration files, SGS third-party test report and certificate of origin are all supplied free of charge.

1. Multiple UN certified packaging & OEM private label service
   Complete UN dangerous goods certified packages cover small trial drums to bulk ISO tankers; neutral English private brand labels can be printed on outer barrels for full-container orders without extra cost.

4. Main Industrial Application Fields
4.1 Waterborne Architectural & Automotive Coatings
Core high-boiling coalescing agent and leveling agent for waterborne acrylic, polyurethane and alkyd coating systems, widely used in interior latex paint, outdoor anti-rust metal coating, plastic finishing paint, automotive water-based primer and topcoat. Improve film flexibility, adhesion and long-term anti-aging performance after curing.
4.2 Printing Ink Production
High-efficiency anti-drying coupling diluent for water-based gravure ink, screen printing ink and flexographic food packaging ink. Slow evaporation prevents screen clogging during high-speed continuous printing, realizes even pigment color spreading and reduces ink waste loss.
4.3 Precision Electronic Manufacturing

1. PCB Circuit Board Cleaning: Efficiently remove surface machining grease, residual photoresist and welding flux without corroding copper circuits and insulating substrate layers;

1. Lithium Battery Production: Ultra-pure DEEA-999 as auxiliary solvent for electrolyte formulation, ultra-low heavy metal impurities avoid micro battery short circuit risk.

4.4 Agrochemical Liquid Formulation
High-boiling coupling carrier solvent for water-soluble pesticide liquid formulations, stabilize uniform dispersion of pesticide active ingredients and prevent precipitation during long-term storage.
4.5 PU Waterborne Resin Synthesis
Solvent raw material for water-based polyurethane resin polymerization synthesis, improve resin leveling property and film forming performance during post-processing.
4.6 Textile Printing & Dyeing Auxiliary
High-boiling humectant and dye carrier in textile printing workshops, accelerate even adsorption of dye molecules on polyester, cotton and blended fabrics, reduce cloth surface color difference and improve soft hand feel after finishing.

Warehouse Storage Requirements
Seal all drums tightly after opening, store in cool, dry and well-ventilated dedicated chemical warehouse. Keep away from strong oxidants, strong acids, open fire and heat sources, avoid long-term direct sunlight exposure. Separate storage with food-grade raw materials is mandatory.
Dangerous Goods Transport Regulations
Classified as UN1993 Category 3 flammable liquid, only qualified dangerous goods transport vehicles and shipping vessels can be used for land and sea carriage. Equip transport equipment with dry powder fire extinguishers and leakage recovery trays. Avoid ultra-high temperature long-distance transit in summer to lower safety risk.
Personal Operation Protection Standard
Workers engaged in filling, sampling and loading operations must wear nitrile chemical resistant gloves, anti-fog impact safety goggles and activated carbon respirator masks. In case of skin/eye splashing, rinse continuously with plenty of clean running water for 10-15 minutes and seek medical treatment immediately if irritation persists.
8. Emergency First-Aid Guide

• Skin Contact: Take off contaminated work clothes, flush skin with large amount of running clean water for at least 10 minutes;

• Eye Contact: Hold eyelids open, flush eye cavity continuously with clean water for over 15 minutes and visit ophthalmologist promptly;

• Inhalation: Move the exposed person to open-air ventilated area immediately, maintain unobstructed breathing; give oxygen if breathing difficulty occurs;

• Oral Ingestion: Do NOT induce vomiting actively, drink a large quantity of warm pure water for dilution and send to emergency hospital for treatment without delay.
