Description
Toluene
Toluene is an aromatic solvent that is obtained during the catalytic reforming of gasoline fractions, as well as during the pyrolysis of petroleum products.
Toluene and its uses
Toluene is used as a starting material for the production of nitrotoluenes, benzene, benzoic acid and many other organic compounds. It is an excellent solvent for many polymeric substances, which is why it is used in the production of solvents for paints and varnishes. Toluene is used as a solvent that helps achieve a certain level of viscosity of paint and varnish. Typically, this substance is used when working with epoxy, as well as vinyl and nitrocellulose paint. A huge number of enterprises prefer to buy toluene, since it is an order of magnitude less toxic than its analogues. Toluene perfectly dissolves polymer materials. In addition, it serves as a solvent in chemical synthesis and is a highly active component of motor fuel. Toluene is the main additive in mixed solvents necessary for dissolving vinyl, acrylic, epoxy compounds, as well as chlorinated rubber.
