Solven ECO T-13 Specification and Safety Information
DESCRIPTION
It is a colorless liquid, free of suspended materials. It is mainly composed of aliphatic hydrocarbons. This low content of aromatics is obtained by Catalytic Hydrogenation, which reduces aromatics, sulfur, saturates olefins and eliminates polar impurities.
It is a product recognized as “Ready Biodegradable” by the criteria of the American OECD. Biodegradability in 28 days is 80%.
PROPERTIES
See the tests, specification, Solven method and reference method in the PDF file available for download.
APPLICATION / MAIN USES
It is an ideal solvent for industrial cleaning and degreasing techniques and protective waxes. Combined with certain emulsifiers it is used in the formation of cleaning products. It is used in temporary protective coatings for the transport of manufactured products, machine spare parts, among others.
