| Ethylene glycol diacetate Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | clear liquid | | Uses | Solvent for oils, cellulose esters, explosives, etc. | | Uses | EGDA imparts excellent flow properties in baking lacquers and enamels and where thermoplastic acrylic resins are used. It is also a good solvent for cellulosic coatings and can be used in some ink systems such as screen inks. It has found use as a perfume fixative, and has reported applications in waterborne adhesives. | | Uses | Ethylene glycol diacetate may be used as an acyl donor for the in situ generation of peracetic acid, during the chemoenzymatic synthesis of caprolactone. It may be employed as a precursor for the enzymatic synthesis of poly (ethylene glutarate). | | General Description | Colorless liquid with a mild pleasant odor. Density 9.2 lb /gal. Flash point 191°F. Boiling point 369°F. Combustible but requires some effort to ignite. Used in the manufacture of perfumes, printing ink, lacquers and resins. | | Air & Water Reactions | Water soluble. | | Reactivity Profile | Ethylene glycol diacetate reacts with aqueous acids to liberate heat along with alcohols and acids. Strong oxidizing acids may cause a vigorous reaction that is sufficiently exothermic to ignite the reaction products. Heat is also generated by the interaction with caustic solutions. Flammable hydrogen is generated with alkali metals and hydrides. | | Health Hazard | Inhalation is not hazardous. Liquid causes mild irritation of eyes. Ingestion causes stupor or coma. | | Fire Hazard | Ethylene glycol diacetate is combustible. | | Flammability and Explosibility | Notclassified | | Safety Profile | Moderately toxic by
intraperitoneal route. Mildly toxic by
ingestion and skin contact. An eye irritant.
Combustible when exposed to heat or
flame; can react with oxidzing materials. To
fight fire, use alcohol foam, CO2, dry
chemical. When heated to decomposition it
emits acrid smoke and irritating fumes. | | Purification Methods | Dry the di-ester with CaCl2, filter (excluding moisture) and fractionally distil it under reduced pressure. [Beilstein 2 IV 1541.] |
