    Propylene Glycol Monomethyl Ether CAS 107-98-2

    Propylene Glycol Monomethyl Ether, widely recognized in the industry as PM Solvent or 1-Methoxy-2-propanol, is a versatile oxygenated chemical solvent featuring both ether and alcohol functional groups. It serves as a high-performance active solvent in industrial coating formulations, facilitating excellent solubility for resins like acrylics, epoxies, and polyurethanes while regulating evaporation rates. This Glycol Ether PM acts as a coupling agent in water-based systems and a solvent for printing inks, ensuring improved flow and leveling properties. We provide competitive factory pricing and ensure customized specifications regarding purity and moisture content. Each batch is supported by full documentation including MSDS, TDS, COA, and is available for bulk supply to global industrial partners.

    Product Description

    Propylene glycol ether and ethylene glycol Ethers belong to the same class of diol ethers solvent Propylene glycol ether is less toxic to the human body than ethylene glycol ether products, and belongs to low-toxicity ethers. Propylene glycol methyl ether has a faint ether odor but does not have a strong pungent odor, making it more versatile and safe. Because there are both ether groups and ether groups in its molecular structure hydroxyl Therefore, its solubility performance is very good, and it has the characteristics of suitable volatilization rate and reactivity to obtain a wide range of applications.

    FAQ - Technical & Supply Chain

    • Q:

      Is PM Solvent the same chemical substance as Propylene Glycol Monomethyl Ether?

      A: Yes. PM Solvent is the common commercial trade name for Propylene Glycol Monomethyl Ether. Both terms identify the solvent registered under CAS 107-98-2.
    • Q:

      Is this solvent compatible with water-borne coating systems?

      A: Yes. Due to its bifunctional nature, it possesses complete water miscibility and is frequently applied as a coupling agent in water-borne industrial coating formulations to improve resin stability and film formation.
    • Q:

      Does this product correspond to the alpha-isomer or beta-isomer?

      A: This material is the alpha-isomer (1-Methoxy-2-propanol, CAS 107-98-2), which is the standard form used in industrial applications. It is distinct from the beta-isomer (2-Methoxy-1-propanol), which is typically excluded from solvent grades due to toxicity concerns.
