Diacetone alcohol

Diacetone alcohol is an organic compound with the formula CH3C(O)CH2C(OH)(CH3)2, also called DAA. 

Diacetone alcohol is colorless and odorless and has a low evaporation rate.

Diacetone alcohol is used in cellulose ester lacquers, particularly of the brushing type, where it produces brilliant gloss and hard film and where its lack of odor is desirable. 

This colorless liquid is a common synthetic intermediate used for preparing other compounds and used as a solvent.

DIACETONE ALCOHOL is bifunctional ketone in its molecular structure which confers specific properties on it, producing a solvent with a low evaporation rate and good solubility in the main resins on the market for paints, varnishes, and printing inks.

Uses of Diacetone Alcohol

Diacetone alcohol is used in cellulose ester lacquers, particularly of the brushing type, where it produces brilliant gloss and hard film and where its lack of odor is desirable. 

Diacetone Alcohol (DAA) is a clear, colorless liquid ketone-alcohol. 

The principal end uses of Diacetone Alcohol are in industrial coatings, household cleaners, inks, paints, paint removers, paint thinners, pharmaceutical preparations, sealants, primers, and pesticides. 

Diacetone Alcohol is a chemical intermediate in preparing Methyl Isobutyl Ketone and Hexylene Glycol.

Diacetone alcohol is used in the following products: coating products, anti-freeze products, biocides (e.g., disinfectants, pest control products), lubricants and greases, fillers, putties, plasters, modeling clay, and finger paints.

Diacetone alcohol is used in lacquer thinners, dopes, wood stains, wood preservatives, and printing pastes; in coating compositions for paper and textiles; permanent markers; in making artificial silk and leather; in imitation gold leaf; in celluloid cement; as a preservative for animal tissue; in metal cleaning compounds; in the manufacture of the photographic film; and hydraulic brake fluids, where it is usually mixed with an equal volume of castor oil.

Diacetone alcohol, or DAA, is an oxygenated solvent derived from acetone with two alcohol and ketone functions. It has high purity. 

Diacetone alcohol is mainly used in paints and coatings (coil, wood varnishes, architectural coatings…). 

Diacetone alcohol is a suitable solvent for organic peroxides and can also be used for the treatment of textiles and leather, in chemical synthesis, or as a cleaning solvent.
