The solvent is a substance, usually a liquid, that has the ability to dissolve another substance called a solute, forming a homogeneous mixture known as a solution. The primary function of a solvent is to break the bonds between solute particles and disperse them evenly throughout the solvent, creating a uniform solution.
Solvents play a vital role in various chemical processes, such as diluting, dissolving, suspending, and extracting compounds. They are widely used in industries like pharmaceuticals, paints, coatings, and cleaning products.
Here are a few common solvents:
Water: Often referred to as the "universal solvent" because it can dissolve many substances, thanks to its polar nature.
Ethanol: A polar solvent commonly used in the pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and food industries.
Acetone: A polar solvent often used as a paint thinner, nail polish remover, and in the production of plastics.
Toluene: A non-polar solvent frequently used in the paint and coatings industry, as well as in the production of adhesives and plastics.
If you need solvents like Butanone, Toluene, Xylene, Isopropanol, Styrene, Cyclohexanone, Ethanol, Methanol, Ethyl Acetate, N-butyl Acetate, Butyl Acrylate, etc., mainly used in paints, coatings, spray paints, printing, leather, ink, and pharmaceutical intermediates.
