Texanol

Description

What is Texanol?

Texanol, scientifically known as 2,2,4-Trimethyl-1,3-pentanediol monoisobutyrate, is a versatile chemical widely used as a coalescent in latex paints and coatings. It enhances film formation, improves durability, and provides superior resistance to environmental stress. With its non-yellowing properties, scrub resistance, and excellent weather stability, Texanol is a preferred choice in the paints, coatings, printing inks, and polymer modification industries.

Chemex Chemicals is a leading importer, distributor, and supplier of Texanol in India, ensuring high-quality supply for diverse industrial applications.
