CAS: 64742-95-6
SOLV 142 is a high purity solvent extensively used in household, industrial and institutional cleaning.It is so effective that it does most of the degreasing and surface preparation. This has a lower aromatic and controlled evaporation rate, providing a cleaner alternative to a number of common solvents on the market therefore making it an ideal solution for many industrial cleaning applications.
