Future Market Prospects of Sec-butyl Acetate

At present, the market commonly used solvents are n-butyl acetate, ethyl acetate, toluene and xylene. Butyl acetate is more widely used, but the price is too high; ethyl acetate volatilizes too fast, resulting in its use is limited; Toluene and xylene are highly toxic to humans and the environment. For the sec-butyl acetate, its price is competitive compared with the solvent, and also has the advantages of strong dissolving performance, moderate evaporation rate, high extraction yield, little toxicity and little residue.

It can save costs, can improve product quality, reduce the human body poisoning, reduce atmospheric pollution. Compared with n-butyl, the price is a big advantage. In recent years, due to the global demand for environmental protection increasingly stringent, low-cost sour butyl acetate is to meet this trend. According to the current demand and export situation, China's sec-butyl acetate production gap is increasing, there is still much room for the development of sec-butyl acetate.
