Product performance:
1. The advantages of MMB in daily aromatherapy:
(1) MMB is a colorless, lipophilic and hydrophilic with mild fragrance. Slow volatilization, it is completely miscible with water, miscible with a large number of organic solvents, and has good solubility for many substances;
(2) MMB functions as a surfactant adjuvant, which can reduce the surfactant dosage;
(3) MMB has the ability to prevent freezing like ethylene glycol;
(4) MMB is very stable to acidification (peroxide), and when mixed with other substances, it does not accelerate the acidification, and the risk of allergy is extremely small;
(5) The volatilization speed of MMB is not easily affected by humidity (DPM is easily affected by humidity), and the volatilization speed can be adjusted according to the concentration of MMB.
2. Performance advantages in other areas of MMB
(1) Outstanding solubility: MMB has both hydroxyl and methoxy groups in the molecule, which makes it form a strong hydrogen bond within and between molecules, and shows amphiphilicity, that is, MMB is both soluble in water. (polar solvent) is soluble in oil (non-polar solvent).
The MMB/water system has no phase separation between 0 and boiling point.
(2) Viscosity: The MMB/water system forms a cluster structure, that is, a strong hydrogen bond. This characteristic is manifested by moderate viscosity, and its highest viscosity occurs at an MMB/water ratio of 80/20.
(3) Low toxicity: MMB shows high safety in many aspects of toxicological tests.
(4) Biodegradability: MMB is a biodegradable substance, which means that it can be treated by microorganisms with sewage treatment equipment.
(5) Low flammability: MMB is highly safe. Its flash point is 68°C (154°F) and disappears with increasing moisture.
(6) Mild smell: MMB can be widely used as aroma carrier. We also have a refined grade product "MMB-2001".
(7) No ozone depletion: MMB can be photodegraded in the air, so it will not destroy the ozone layer in the stratosphere.
(8) No residue after volatilization.
Product Usage:
The properties of MMB make it versatile. The potential use of MMB in your products and shipments will be of great benefit to you.
1. Industrial and civil cleaning agent: It can be used for metal cleaning, baking oven, glass, bathroom, carpet and laundry, etc.
2. Air freshener: It can be used as gel and liquid air freshener in household, automobile and industrial fields. And provide the refined product "MMB-2001". It can be used in fragrant products such as rattan aromatherapy and air fresheners, highlighting its high solubility, high safety, and good fragrance permeability.
3. Other application recommendations:
It can be used as a high-boiling solvent for high-grade woodworking coatings of polyurethane resin system to improve leveling.
It can be used as a high-boiling point solvent for urethane resin-based plastic coatings such as automobile bumpers to improve leveling.
It can be used as a high boiling point solvent for UV light curing paint and non-toxic toy paint to exert its characteristics.
It can be used as a solvent for urethane-based resin coatings for automobile repairs and as a solution to water (thin water, banana water).
It can be used as a volatilization rate adjusting (delaying) solvent for propylene glycol monomethyl ether acetate (an alternative solvent for cellosolve acetate (CAC)).
It can be used as a high-boiling point solvent for screen (SCREEN) ink to exert its characteristics.
In other fields, it can be used as a solvent for fungicides and pesticides by using high dissolving power.

MMB conventional packaging is 185KG/drum; according to customer needs.
Storage and transportation: It should be stored in a dry, ventilated and low-temperature warehouse. When transporting, it should be handled and placed lightly to avoid rain, sunlight and collision.
