Product Description

Royalchem supplies ethyl 3-ethoxypropionate (EEP), CAS 763-69-9, a slow-evaporating ether-ester solvent for industrial coatings, inks and related resin processing. It is used to adjust solvent balance, application viscosity and leveling.

Product Name	Ethyl 3-Ethoxypropionate (EEP) CAS 763-69-9; EC 212-112-9 Synonyms: ethyl 3-ethoxypropanoate; 3-ethoxypropionic acid ethyl ester
Formula / Molecular Weight	C₇H₁₄O₃; 146.18 g/mol
Structure
Product Type	Slow-evaporating ether-ester solvent for industrial and coating applications.
Typical Specifications	Appearance: clear, colorless liquid Assay: ≥99.5% Water: ≤0.05% Ethanol: ≤0.10% Color (Pt-Co): ≤10 Acidity: ≤0.02% Reference specification for industrial/coating grade. Confirm the agreed specification and batch COA for the order.
Reference Physical Properties	Density at 20°C: approximately 0.95 g/cm³ Boiling range: approximately 165–172°C Flash point, closed cup: approximately 58–59°C Evaporation rate: approximately 0.12 (n-butyl acetate = 1) Surface tension at 23°C: approximately 27 dyn/cm Solubility in water at 20°C: approximately 2.9 wt% Reference physical data, not batch release specifications.
Applications	Automotive and industrial coatings: solvent balance, application viscosity, flow and leveling. Selected inks and graphic arts: resin solvency and drying control, subject to formulation and end-use validation. Resin and polymer processing: dissolution and process solvent applications. Photoresist and electronics processes: require separately agreed limits for metals, particles, non-volatile residue, filtration and packaging cleanliness. The industrial grade is not an electronics-grade guarantee.
Packing & Storage	Packaging is confirmed in the quotation and order. Keep containers tightly closed in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area, away from heat, sparks, flames and incompatible materials. Follow the supplied SDS for handling, grounding, ventilation and transport classification.

FAQ

What is EEP used for?	EEP is used as a slow-evaporating solvent in industrial coatings, selected inks and resin processing. Evaluate solvent compatibility and drying behavior in your formulation.
Which quality parameters should I specify?	Specify assay, water, acidity, color and any application-specific impurities. Include the test method or reference specification when comparing grades.
Can EEP directly replace PMA or PGMEA?	A direct substitution should be validated. Compare resin solvency, evaporation behavior and the finished coating or ink properties before changing the formulation.
Does industrial-grade EEP qualify for electronics use?	Assay and water alone do not establish suitability. Agree limits for metals, particles and non-volatile residue, together with filtration and packaging requirements, then validate the material in your process.
