Diacetone Alcohol (DAA)

Slow-evaporating dual-character solvent carrying both ketone and alcohol groups.

Product description

Because it carries both a ketone and a hydroxyl group, diacetone alcohol is compatible with oil- and water-based systems alike. Its slow evaporation prevents the blushing defect seen in hot, humid conditions. It is used in cellulosic lacquers and screen inks to preserve gloss.

Application areas

  • Anti-blush agent in cellulosic lacquers and varnishes
  • Screen and pad printing inks
  • Paint stripper formulations
  • Hydraulic and brake fluid components
  • Coalescent in waterborne systems
