124-17-4 Usage
Chemical Properties
colourless liquid with a slight fruity smell
Uses
2-(2-Butoxyethoxy)ethyl acetate (Butyldiglycol acetate) may be used as a component to reduce the minimal film forming temperature (MTF) during poly(vinyl acetate)(PVAc) based composite film preparation. It may also be used during the formulation of thick film pastes of silver.
General Description
Colorless liquid with a mild odor. Floats and mixes slowly with water.
Air & Water Reactions
Water soluble.
Reactivity Profile
Esters react with acids to liberate heat along with alcohols and acids. Strong oxidizing acids may cause a vigorous reaction that is sufficiently exothermic to ignite the reaction products. Heat is also generated by the interaction of esters with caustic solutions. Flammable hydrogen is generated by mixing esters with alkali metals and hydrides.
Health Hazard
Prolonged breathing of vapor may cause irritation and nausea. Contact with liquid may cause mild irritation of eyes and skin. Can be absorbed through skin in toxic amounts.
Flammability and Explosibility
Nonflammable
Chemical Reactivity
Reactivity with Water No reaction; Reactivity with Common Materials: No reaction; Stability During Transport: Stable; Neutralizing Agents for Acids and Caustics: Not pertinent; Polymerization: Not pertinent; Inhibitor of Polymerization: Not pertinent.
Safety Profile
Moderately toxic by
ingestion. Mild skin and eye irritant.
Combustible when exposed to heat or
flame. To fight fire, use foam, CO2, dry
chemical. Incompatible with oxidizing
materials, heat, flame. When heated to
decomposition it emits acrid smoke and
irritating fumes.
Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 124-17-4 includes 6 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 3 digits, 1,2 and 4 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 1 and 7 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 124-17:
(5*1)+(4*2)+(3*4)+(2*1)+(1*7)=34
34 % 10 = 4
So 124-17-4 is a valid CAS Registry Number.

Method of Fabricating Glycol Monoalkyl Ether Acetate Using Acidic Ionic Liquid Catalyst
-
Page/Page column 3, (2011/08/06)
A new method for fabricating glycol monoalkyl ether acetate (GMAEA) is provided. A Bronsted acidic ionic liquid is used. After some reactions, two layers of materials are formed. A product of GMAEA is obtained at the upper layer. The lower layer is the ionic liquid. Thus, the ionic liquid is reusable for re-fabricating the product. And, furthermore, waste acid is reduced.
