Butyl Oxitol

Butyl Oxitol is a colourless, mild smelling liquid with a high boiling point.  It is slightly hygroscopic and miscible with water at room temperature.  At higher temperatures a miscibility gap with water occurs in the system.  Butyl OXITOL is also miscible with numerous oxygenated solvents, as well as with aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons and oils; it has outstanding solvent power for many nature and synthetic resins, nitrocellulose and ethyl cellulose.  Butyl OXITOL forms binary azeotropic mixtures with water and a range of organic substances.
