hydrocarbon & oxygenated fluids

Hydrocarbon fluids for rust prevention

Exxsol™ D and Isopar™ hydrocarbon fluids give formulators of rust prevention oils optimum control over product performance and a high level of safety and comfort for their employees and customers.

Compared with kerosene and white spirits, which exhibit a significant degree of variability, contain sulfur and have aromatic content as high as 30%, Exxsol D and Isopar fluids offer:

High degrees of quality and consistency: for enabling reliable end-product performance
Narrow boiling range: for optimized formulations and faster drying times
Lower toxicity and low odor: for improved worker safety and comfort
Significantly higher OELs (Occupational Exposure Limits): for safer operations

Exxsol D fluid can carry and dissolve active ingredients while helping to inhibit corrosion during dip-tank immersion, brushing and spraying operations. With aromatic content less than 0.5%, Exxsol D40, Exxsol D60 and Exxsol D80 fluids help formulators develop rust prevention products with a balance of tailored drying times, viscosity, lubrication and safe operating conditions.

Isopar fluids contain less than 0.01% percent aromatic content, are virtually odorless and are suitable for select food contact applications.
