SOVASOL NO. 73 and 74 are industrial solvents designed for cleaning, degreasing, and paint removal applications. These solvents consist of a mixture of hydrocarbons, providing effective removal of grease, oil, and other contaminants from metal surfaces, machinery, and equipment. SOVASOL NO. 73 and 74 are widely used in the automotive, aerospace, and manufacturing industries, helping maintain cleanliness and enhance the performance of mechanical systems. Proper handling and storage are vital to prevent accidents and ensure safety, as these solvents are flammable and pose health risks if inhaled or ingested. Safety measures, including the use of appropriate protective equipment and adherence to handling protocols, are essential when working with SOVASOL NO. 73 and 74. Their efficiency as industrial solvents makes them valuable chemicals in numerous cleaning and degreasing applications, although their use necessitates careful control to prevent hazards.
