Before matching

Documents to check

  • CAS number, grade, assay, and impurity profile
  • SDS, COA, TDS, HS code, and transport classification
  • Destination-market import documents before supplier matching
Package and route

Packing notes

  • Source listing states 200 kg drum packing.
  • Source listing states IBC drum / IBC packing is available.
  • Confirm net weight, gross weight, drum material, palletization, container loading quantity, and whether packaging is UN-rated where applicable.
  • Request current package photos, batch label format, and seal details before shipment.
  • Confirm sample availability and whether sample documents match commercial shipment documents.
Applications and sourcing options

Check whether this product fits the buyer's actual application.

Clear application, grade, package, and document notes help separate real sourcing demand from a vague price check.

Use context

Common applications

  • Solvent or coupling agent for coatings and water-based systems
  • Solvent for inks, dyes, acrylics, cellulose-related applications, and industrial formulations
  • Component for industrial cleaning formulations where specification and local compliance permit
  • Formulation solvent for agrochemical products where allowed by destination regulations and product registrations
  • Industrial solvent distribution for qualified downstream manufacturers
How we compare

Sourcing options

  • 200 kg drum commercial shipment
  • IBC commercial shipment
  • Sample request before bulk RFQ
  • Batch-specific COA review before order confirmation
  • Third-party inspection or pre-shipment documentation check
  • Destination-specific document package review with buyer's customs broker
Human review

Compliance notes

  • Verify the substance identity by CAS 107-98-2, synonym list, molecular formula, and chromatographic assay before procurement.
  • Request latest COA, SDS, TDS/specification sheet, commercial invoice template, packing list template, certificate of origin, and any transport classification statement available from the supplier.
  • Check local import requirements for glycol ethers and industrial solvents in the destination country before placing an order.
  • The source page mentions use in pesticide formulations as a solvent; this does not make the material a pesticide active ingredient. Buyers should distinguish solvent/intermediate use from regulated active ingredient registration requirements.
  • Confirm dangerous goods transport classification, UN number if applicable, flash point, packaging group if applicable, and carrier acceptance with the freight forwarder.
  • Do not rely on marketplace wording as a regulatory determination; obtain batch-specific documentation and independent compliance review where required.
  • For agriculture-related formulation buyers, confirm whether use as an inert/formulation solvent is allowed under destination-market pesticide registration rules.
  • Check impurity limits, especially water, acidity, color, and 2-Methoxy-1-propanol content, against the buyer's internal specification.
