propylene glycol methyl ether acetate
CAS: 84540-57-8; 108-65-6
Chemical formula: C6H12O3
Propylene glycol methyl ether acetate is a kind of advanced solvent. Its molecule contains both ether bond and carbonyl group, and the carbonyl group forms the structure of ester and contains alkyl group. In the same molecule, there are both non-polar parts and polar parts, and the functional groups of these two parts not only restrict and repel each other, but also play their inherent roles. Therefore, it has a certain solubility for both non-polar and polar substances. Propylene glycol methyl ether acetate was synthesized by esterification of propylene glycol methyl ether and glacial acetic acid using concentrated sulfuric acid as catalyst. It is an excellent low-toxicity advanced industrial solvent, has a strong ability to dissolve polar and non-polar substances, suitable for high-grade coatings, ink solvents of various polymers, including aminomethyl ester, vinyl, polyester, cellulose acetate, alkyd resin, acrylic resin, epoxy resin and nitrocelluloses. Among them. Propylene glycol methyl ether propionate is the best solvent in paint and ink, suitable for unsaturated polyester, polyurethane resin, acrylic resin, epoxy resin and so on.
According to the “2023-2027 China Propanediol methyl ether acetate (PMA) Project Investment Feasibility Study Report” released by Xinsijie Industry Research Center, at this stage, China’s propanediol methyl ether acetate production technology has gradually improved, its comprehensive performance has gradually improved, its application field has gradually expanded, and it has gradually developed into semiconductor, photoresist substrate, copper clad plate and other markets. The market demand is growing gradually. Under this background, the market scale of propylene glycol methyl ether acetate in China shows an increasing trend year by year. From 2015 to 2022, the market size of propylene glycol methyl ether acetate in China increased from 2.261 billion yuan to 3.397 billion yuan, with a compound annual growth rate of 5.99%. Among them, Tianyin chemical market accounted for the largest proportion, reaching 25.7%; Hualun Chemical followed, accounting for 13.8% of the market; In third place is Jida Chemical, with a market share of 10.4%. With the continuous development of China’s propylene glycol methyl ether acetate industry, the capacity structure is gradually upgraded, backward production capacity is gradually eliminated, and its market concentration is expected to further increase in the future.

Quotation provider: Xiamen Xiangde Supreme Chemical Products Co., LTD.
At present, with the development of coating, ink, printing and dyeing, textile and other industries in China, the market demand of China’s propylene glycol methyl ether acetate industry is growing, and the domestic production rate of industrial propylene glycol methyl ether acetate is getting higher and higher. However, the production technology of electronic grade and even semiconductor grade propylene glycol methyl ether acetate is relatively difficult. At present, China’s local enterprises of propylene glycol methyl ether acetate have a larger import market replacement space in this field. Electronic grade propylene glycol methyl ether and propylene glycol methyl ether acetate can be used as diluent, cleaning agent or stripping liquid for the production of electronic components including semiconductors, photoresist substrates, copper-clad plates, liquid crystal displays and other fields. China recently introduced a number of “fourteen five” plan are mentioned to encourage the development of semiconductor and other high-tech materials industry, China’s propylene glycol methyl ether acetate industry or will be able to take the east wind of the policy, step up the development and expansion of electronic grade propylene glycol methyl ether acetate, with the future domestic import substitution trend increased, China’s electronic grade propylene glycol methyl ether acetate industry will create a lot of profit space for the industry, with great investment value.
