Description
Tarksol
SC
Plus is a general-purpose heavy duty cleaning and degreasing solvent. This
unique solvent is very effective in applications where mineral spirits is the
solvent of choice.
Tarksol
SC
Plus does not contain any chlorinated or chlorofluorocarbon solvents which
contribute to ozone depletion, environmental damage, or human concerns.
Effective
Tarksol
SC
Plus utilizes a carefully rapid evaporation rate to clean and quickly dry any
parts normally cleaned with mineral spirits or other VOC solvents. without
re-deposition. Clean
Tarksol
SC
Plus will not leave a residue on ultimate evaporation. Ideal for use in all
engineering applications, especially as a
clean-up solvent or any application where mineral spirits is the
preferred solvent of choice, without the low flash point.
Tarksol
SC
Plus is an excellent replacement in formulated products where mineral spirits
is used. Tarksol SC Plus offers all the benefits and properties of mineral
spirits, without the extremely low flash point or VOC's.
Applications
– Formulations
The Ozone
Transportation Commission (OTC) has initiated VOC Regulations beginning
1/1/05
. Tarksol SC Plus is an excellent
substitute for most VOC solvents in degreasing or in specialty formulations.
Properties are very similar to odorless mineral spirits, except Tarksol SC
Plus is not a VOC and has a much higher flash point (>200 deg F)
