Features & Benefits

Performance

NXT SOLV 400 has an excellent EH&S profile. It is a non-flammable and non-combustible solvent, with low volatility - meets many low vapor pressure exemptions – as well as being non-sensitizing and non-toxic - only eye irritating. It brings difficult ingredients into formulation with low to no foaming and compatibilizes oil and water without the use of surfactants. It stabilizes formulations by reducing the risk of phase separations even in concentrated solutions, improving the freeze-thaw properties as well. It shows excellent soil-removal properties on par with commercial formulations. Its powerful stain-cutting ability makes it applicable for hard and soft surfaces.
