Application
1) Butyl acetate is used as solvent in coating, lacquer, printing ink, adhesive, leatheroid, nitrocellulose, etc.
2) It is the solvent of some cosmetics, acting as medium boiling solvent of nail polishes to dissolve theepithelium forming agents, like: nitrocellulose, acrylate and alkyd resins.
3) It also can be used to prepare the remover of nail polishes. It is often mixed with ethyl acetate while in use.
4) It is also applied to prepare perfume. It appears in the recipes of apricot, banana, pear and pineapple essences.
5) In petroleum refining and pharmaceutical industry, it is used as extractant, especially the extractant of some antibiotics.
6) Butyl acetate is an azeotrope former with good ability to carry water. It is often used to condense some weak solution to reduce energy consumption.
7) Butyl acetate also can be used as analytical reagent verify thalium, stannum and tungsten, and determine molybdenum and rhenium.
