Used as a solvent in coatings, inks, and adhesives due to its fast evaporation rate and ability to dissolve a wide range of substances. Commonly found in nail polish removers and artificial nail cleaners because it is less harsh than acetone. Employed in the food industry as a flavoring agent, providing a fruity, pear-like aroma in candies, beverages, and baked goods. Also utilized in the production of fragrances and perfumes for its pleasant scent. Suitable for use in extraction processes in laboratories due to its low polarity and good solvating properties.
