EGDA imparts excellent flow properties in baking lacquers and enamels and where thermoplastic acrylic resins are used. It is also a good solvent for cellulosic coatings and can be used in some ink systems such as screen inks. It has found use as a perfume fixative, and has reported applications in waterborne adhesives.
Ethylene glycol diacetate may be used as an acyl donor for the in situ generation of peracetic acid, during the chemoenzymatic synthesis of caprolactone. It may be employed as a precursor for the enzymatic synthesis of poly (ethylene glutarate).
