Explosive limits: LEL = 1.3%; UEL= 10.4. HazardIdentification (based on NFPA-704 M Rating System):Health 2, Flammability 2, Reactivity 1. Highly soluble inwater | [Chemical Properties]
Dipropylene glycol monomethyl ether (DPM) is colorless liquid with a mild, pleasant odor. Because of its structure it is completely miscible with water and a wide variety of organic substances, and has the combined solubility characteristics of an alcohol, on ether and a hydrocarbon. It is used in formulations of brake fluids, lacquers, paints, varnishes, dye and ink solvents, wood stains, textile processes, dry cleaning soaps and cleaning compounds.
| [Characteristics]
Dipropylene glycol methyl ether is a colorless transparent liquid with a faint ether smell. Dipropylene glycol methyl ether has low toxicity. Dipropylene glycol methyl ether has low viscosity and low surface tension. Dipropylene glycol methyl ether has a moderate evaporation rate. Dipropylene glycol methyl ether has good solubility and coupling ability.
Dipropylene glycol methyl ether is miscible with water and has appropriate HLB value. It can dissolve grease, natural resin and rubber, cellulose, polyvinyl acetate, polyvinyl methyl/ethyl/butyraldehyde, alkyd resin, phenolic resin, Polymer chemicals such as urea resin. | [Uses]
As solvent for automotive fluids, cleaners, dyes, coatings, inks, waxes, adhesives, agricultural products, insect repellents, and cosmetics; chemical intermediate. | [Uses]
Dipropylene glycol methyl ether is often used in
combination with propylene glycol in cosmetics. | [Uses]
Solvent for nitrocellulose and synthetic
resins | [Flammability and Explosibility]
Nonflammable | [Potential Exposure]
PrimaryIrritant. This material is used in antifreeze formulations,cosmetics, cleaning compounds, and heat transfer fluids; asa solvent for nitrocellulose and other synthetic resins. | [First aid]
If this chemical gets into the eyes, remove any contact lenses at once and irrigate immediately for at least15 min, occasionally lifting upper and lower lids. Seek medical attention immediately. If this chemical contacts the skin,remove contaminated clothing and wash immediately withsoap and water. Seek medical attention immediately. If thischemical has been inhaled, remove from exposure, begin rescue breathing (using universal precautions, including resuscitation mask) if breathing has stopped and CPR if heart actionhas stopped. Transfer promptly to a medical facility. Whenthis chemical has been swallowed, get medical attention.Give large quantities of water and induce vomiting. Do notmake an unconscious person vomit. | [storage]
: Color Code—Red: Flammability Hazard: Store ina flammable liquid storage area or approved cabinet awayfrom ignition sources and corrosive and reactive materials.Store in tightly closed containers in a cool, well-ventilatedarea away from strong oxidizers (such as chlorine, bromine,and fluorine). Before entering confined space where thischemical may be present, check to make sure that an explosive concentration does not exist. Store in tightly closedcontainers in a cool, well-ventilated area away from heatand incompatible materials. Sources of ignition, such assmoking and open flames, are prohibited where this chemical is used, handled, or stored in a manner that could createa potential fire or explosion hazard. Metal containersinvolving the transfer of 5 gallons or more of this chemicalshould be grounded and bonded. Drums must be equippedwith self-closing valves, pressure vacuum bungs, and flamearresters. Use only nonsparking tools and equipment, especially when opening and closing containers of thischemical. | [Incompatibilities]
Strong oxidizers. The substance can presumably form explosive peroxides in contact with air.Reacts violently with strong oxidants. | [Toxics Screening Level]
The initial threshold screening level (ITSL) for dipropylene glycol methyl ether is 720 μg/m3 (annual averaging time). |
