Application:Hexylene Glycol is used as a reagent in the synthesis of functionalized boronic esters. it is used in laboratory studies as a precipitant and cryoprotectant in protein crystallography. Also used in the preparation of vinylboronates. It is mainly used as a coupling agent and an additive to hydraulic fluids, inks and cement. Further, it is used as a solvent for cleaning and colorant products. It is a potential substitute for glycol ethers. It is an effective shrinkage reduction admixture or SRA for concrete and mortar. It can also be used as a building block in chemical synthesis. Hexylene glycol is a key solvent in many markets such as paints & coatings, metal working fluids, detergency, cosmetics & fragrances, textiles & leather.It is used to control the flow properties of industrial products such as paints, coatings, cleansers, solvents, and hydraulic fluids. It acts as a thickening agent in cosmetic products. It is also employed as a blood volume expander.
