Hydrocarbon Solvent D140

Description

What is Hydrocarbon Solvent D140?

Hydrocarbon Solvent D140 is a high-purity, low-aromatic solvent derived from petroleum fractions. It is a clear, colorless liquid with a mild odor, high flash point, and controlled evaporation rate, making it safe and effective for industrial applications.

With its excellent solvency power and very low aromatic content, D140 is widely used in paints, coatings, agrochemical formulations, printing inks, adhesives, and metalworking fluids. Its slow evaporation rate and high boiling range provide superior film formation, stability, and long-lasting performance across multiple industries.

Technical Specification 

• Appearance: Bright & Clear
• Aromatic Content: Max 2 wt%
• Benzene Content: Max 5 ng/kg
• Color, Saybolt: Min +30
• Flash Point: Min 129°C (ASTM D93)
• Viscosity (40°C): 3.50 to 5.00 mm²/s (ASTM D445)
• Distillation Range (ASTM D86):
  • Initial Boiling Point (IBP): Min 272°C
  • Final Boiling Point (FBP): Max 320°C

Key Applications:

• Paints & Coatings
  Enhances gloss, durability, and film formation while ensuring smooth application in industrial and decorative coatings.

• Adhesives & Sealants
  Provides consistent viscosity, improved bonding strength, and long-lasting adhesion in solvent-based adhesives.

• Printing Inks
  Offers excellent print quality and controlled drying properties in flexographic and gravure inks.

• Agrochemical Formulations
  Acts as a carrier solvent for pesticides, herbicides, and insecticides, ensuring uniform dispersion and high stability.

• Metalworking & Cleaning Fluids
  Suitable for degreasing, precision cleaning, and parts washing due to its high flash point and low odor.

• Fuel Additives & Lubricants
  Improves blending properties and stability in lubricant oils and fuel additive formulations.
