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.

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.

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.
