Product Overview
Diacetone Alcohol (DAA) is a multifunctional ketone-alcohol solvent that combines the solvency of a ketone with the low evaporation rate of a higher alcohol. It is miscible with water and most organic solvents, making it an excellent coalescent and coupling solvent in waterborne and solvent-borne coating systems. DAA is widely used in cellulose, acrylic, epoxy and vinyl coating formulations. ISL Chemicals supplies industrial-grade DAA for Pakistan’s paint, coatings and printing industries.
