    2,2,4-Trimethyl-1,3-Pentanediol Monoisobutyrate CAS 25265-77-4

    Texanol, also known as TMPDMIB, trimethylpentanediol monoisobutyrate, or 2,2,4-TMPD monoisobutyrate, is an ester alcohol corresponding to CAS 25265-77-4 and commonly used as a coalescent in latex paint coalescent systems. Its function is based on controlled evaporation behavior that promotes polymer particle deformation and film formation during the drying process of waterborne coatings. The material is supplied with competitive factory pricing, customized specifications, complete documentation including MSDS, TDS, COA, and reliable bulk supply.

    Product Overview

    2,2,4-Trimethyl-1,3-Pentanediol Monoisobutyrate is provided for industrial formulation use as a film-forming aid and coating additive. It is more appropriately positioned as a functional additive for coating systems rather than as a general-purpose raw solvent or an end-use consumer product.

    In latex paint and related coating systems, this product is commonly applied to support film formation, reduce minimum film-forming temperature, and improve coating film properties such as flatness, gloss, and scrub resistance.
