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).

Limited quantitative information is available on dermal exposure to chemicals during various industrial activities. Therefore, within the scope of the EU-funded RISKOFDERM project, potential dermal exposure was measured during three different tasks: filling, loading and brushing. DEGBE (2-(2-butoxyethoxy)ethanol) was used
