Benzyloxyethanol

Benzyloxyethanol ( CAS 622-08-2 ), also known as ethylene glycol monobenzyl ether, is a glycol ether solvent used across coatings, personal care, and specialty chemical formulations.

It combines slow evaporation with good solvency, making it effective as a carrier and coalescing agent in systems where controlled drying is commercially important for industrial processes.

In coatings and printing inks, it functions as a high-boiling solvent that improves flow, leveling, and film formation in both waterborne and solvent-based systems for professional use.

Personal care formulators use it as a solvent and carrier in fragrance compositions, emollients, and preservation systems where it supports active delivery and formulation stability across various product lines.

In adhesives and sealants, it aids resin dissolution and controls open time, particularly in systems requiring extended workability during the application phase of construction or manufacturing.

It also appears in UV-stabilizer formulations as a carrier solvent, helping to disperse stabilizing actives uniformly within the final product to ensure long-term durability and performance.

This chemical is supplied as a clear liquid in standard industrial drum and IBC quantities. Technical grade is the primary commercial form, with purity levels typically at 98% or higher.

Cosmetic-grade material is available for personal care applications where tighter impurity profiles are required to meet specific safety and regulatory standards within the global beauty industry.
