Properties

Safety and environmental: By using natural raw materials, it is environmental-friendly and can be fully biodegradable.
Good smell: With natural aromatic odor, non-irritating.
High solubility: soluble in resin and varied organic solvent, it can completely miscible with water.
Good viscosity: It can effectively improve strength and paint gloss.
Excellent permeability: With the unique structure of small molecular hydroxide, the lactate solution has good permeability, for example it can moisten the pigment and improve the divergence.

Application Example

Ethyl lactate contains hydroxyl and ester groups in its structure and has good reactivity. It is often used as a basic raw material in chemical production, as a solvent with high boiling point, a cleaning agent, and a synthetic raw material. It can be used as paint stripper.
