What are the 3 most common types of solvents?
Oxygenated solvents. An oxygenated solvent contains oxygen molecule,with high solvency and low toxicity. These solvents are widely used in paints, inks, #pharmaceuticals, perfumes, adhesives, cosmetics, detergents, and food processing. Alcohols,glycols, glycol ethers, ketones,bio & green sovlents and esters are the major types of oxygenated solvents.
Hydrocarbon solvents. Hydrocarbon solvents are compounds that are non-aromatic or aliphatic. Hydrocarbon solvents have no benzene ring structure in their chemical composition. They are simply mixtures of saturated, long straight chains (normal paraffins), branched chains (e.g., isoparaffin) or cyclic paraffins.
Halogenated solvents. The halogenated solvents are volatile organic chemicals consisting of a hydrocarbon chain or one hydrocarbon substituted with one or more chlorine or bromine atoms. Most of these chemicals are used as degreasers and solvents in various products such as paints.
