- Compliant Lacquer Thinner Base
New regulations on the horizon will forever change the paint and lacquer thinner market as well as the package solvent market. Soyanol™ is a line of soy-based additives designed to enhance performance and provide formulators with easy to use technology to help meet tough regulations. Unlike other product lines, Soyanol™ provides “green” chemistry for both solvent and water-based formulating.
Soyanol™ 5000X-TB is an exclusive lacquer thinner base which has been certified in a lacquer thinner formulation by the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) as meeting the 25 g/l VOC limit designated by Rule 1143. When blended with the recommended amount of acetone, the formulator may utilize this “clean air solvent” designation to provide customers with the reassurance that their product meets the strictest regulatory standards.
Like all our thinner components, Soyanol™ 5000X-TB is formulated to provide performance similar to existing product lines. Not only can our lacquer thinner base be used for thinning lacquers, clear varnishes and other coatings, it provides the cleaning power the commercial contractor expects in a quality, medium dry time lacquer thinner.
Soyanol™ 5000X-TB can also be blended with other exempt solvents such as methyl acetate and propylene carbonate.
