KETONE FAMILY

MIBK

medium-boiling with excellent solvency characteristics. Has high tolerance for diluents. Gives solutions of low viscosity and high solids concentration.

DAA —high-boiling solvent that improves blush resistance. Excellent for hot lacquers. Ideal for decorative brushing lacquers because of mild odor.

ACETONE —low-boiling solvent that

permits high solids concentration, particularly useful in high-low lacquer systems. Good for paint and varnish removers.

.1

MEK —low-boiling, strong solvency for all resins used in lacquer. Gives low viscosity solutions, high solids concentration, high diluent tolerance.

EAKhigh-boiling solvent, excellent blush resistance, good diluent tolerance, and high solvency for surface-coating materials. Slow evaporation contributes to good flowout, prevents pinholingand bubbling.

Now—the standard of comparison for lacquer solvent s y s t e m s . . . Ketone solvent systems have become the standard of excellence in lacquer technology against which all other systems are measured. There are very good reasons why this is so. For example: Ketone solvent systems give superior finishes in almost any formulation at lowest cost. Ketones yield solutions of higher solids or permit greater diluent content

with either aromatic or aliphatic solvents. In addition, ketone-based solvent systems assure complete flexibility in formulating. When you buy high-purity solvents from Shell, you add the latent solvent you prefer. High-purity, active solvents available from Shell include: acetone, MEK, MIBK, DAA, EAK, as well as latent solvents MIBC, IPA, and industrial ethyl alcohols. Shell also provides technical assistance-

backed by years of experience and one of the world's best-equipped surface coatings laboratories. For information on solvents—or help with formulation problems, write or phone your nearest Shell Chemical office.
