2-Ethoxyethyl Isobutyrate

Ref. 3D-ECA39697

Product Information

• Name: 2-Ethoxyethyl Isobutyrate
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 2-Ethoxyethyl Isobutyrate is a catalyst that is used in the production of polyolefins. It is an organometallic compound with an average particle diameter of 10 micrometers. The reaction mechanism is initiated by the formation of a metal alkyl complex and a covalent bond with the polymer chain, which leads to crosslinking of the polymer chains. 2-Ethoxyethyl Isobutyrate increases fluidity and reactivity, as well as reducing viscosity during polymerization. It also has been shown to increase the degree of crystallinity in polypropylene products.
