    DPM - Dipropylene Glycol Methyl Ether – Solvents product from Bio Green Chem

    DPM - Dipropylene Glycol Methyl Ether

    Dipropylene glycol methyl ether, DPM, is the two-unit homologue of PM. Doubling the glycol backbone raises the boiling point sharply while keeping full water miscibility, which makes it a slow-evaporating coupling solvent.
