Description

Carbitol, also known as diethylene glycol monomethyl ether, is a colorless, viscous liquid with a faint, sweet odor. It is synthesized through the reaction of ethylene oxide with ethylene glycol. Carbitol is a versatile solvent, widely used in various industries, including paints, resins, inks, and cosmetics. Its primary function is to act as a solvent, plasticizer, and humectant. It is studied for its potential applications in various fields, including pharmaceutical formulations, chemical synthesis, and industrial processes. Due to its excellent solvency properties, it is a vital component in many industrial and consumer products. However, it is important to note that carbitol is considered a mild irritant and should be handled with caution.

Drug Classes (4)

ClassDescription
dietherA polyether in which the number of ether linkages is 2.
primary alcoholA primary alcohol is a compound in which a hydroxy group, -OH, is attached to a saturated carbon atom which has either three hydrogen atoms attached to it or only one other carbon atom and two hydrogen atoms attached to it.
hydroxypolyetherA hydroxyether compound containing more than one ether group.
glycol etherA hydroxyether which contains both an ether and alcohol functional groups. It is one of the most versatile classes of organic solvents which are commonly used in paints, cleaners, adhesives, pharmaceuticals and cosmetics.
