Tarksol Biosoy is a general purpose heavy duty cleaning and degreasing solvent. This unique solvent blend is very effective in resin clean-up, degreasing and as a solvent for general purpose use. Tarksol Biosoy 60 is based on a novel blend of Tarksol 97, a biomass alcohol and a Soy Bean solvent derivative. Tarksol Biosoy does not contain any chlorinated or chlorofluorocarbon solvents which contribute to ozone depletion, environmental damage, or human concerns. Effective Tarksol Biosoy utilizes a carefully slowed evaporation rate to carry the maximum amount of oils, grease, polymers, urethane, etc., without re-deposition. Clean Tarksol Biosoy will not leave a residue on ultimate evaporation. Ideal for use in all engineering applications, especially as a resin and clean-up solvent.
