Description

General description

Di(propylene glycol) methyl ether acetate (DPMA, 3-(3-methoxypropoxy)propyl acetate) is extensively employed as a solvent in coatings and silkscreening inks. It is also used as a cleaning agent. In vivo, DPMA rapidly hydrolyzes to dipropylene glycol methyl ether (DPM), thus, the in vivo effects of DPMA are expected to be the same as those of DPM.
