Application
iso-Butyl Alcohol is primarily used as a solvent and as a feedstock for chemical syntheses, with its main application in the coatings industry. It is especially valued as a diluent in cellulose nitrate lacquers, where it enhances flow, gloss, and resistance while preventing blushing during drying under humid conditions. These properties make iso-Butyl Alcohol a preferred choice for achieving high-quality finishes in various coating formulations.
