Sector: Paints & Coatings

Paints and coatings play an important role in the world around us. Their use is diverse and range from state-of-the-art coatings to spray paints.

Solvents are used to dissolve or disperse various components used in the formulations as well as enhancing the performance of such products. For example the use of glycol ether esters in spray paints prevent them from drying in air quickly due to the slower evaporation rate of this group of solvents.

Alcohols Ltd can supply a range of suitable solvents that can be utilised within this sector including:

  • Isopropanol
  • Ethanol
  • Methyl Ethyl Ketone
  • Acetone
  • Ethyl Acetate
  • Toluene
  • …and many more
