Sasol LPA Solvents

LPA® Solvents are high purity mixtures of hydrotreated isoparaffins and naphthenics with very low levels of polynuclear aromatics. They can be used in a wide array of applications, including oilfield, cleaning products, metal rolling oils, coatings, mining chemicals, etc. These solvents are clear liquids with mild odor and high solvency. The unique process used to manufacture these solvents produces low levels of normal paraffins. Consequently, LPA® Solvents have higher solvent strengths and lower freeze points than competitive low aromatic solvents with equivalent boiling ranges.   Please contact a sales representative for more information on particular FDA regulations or for solvent status under CARB or as an LVP-VOC for consumer products.

Hexane meets 21 CFR 175.105 requirements and ASTM D1836 specifications.

Heptane

Heptane is an aliphatic solvent consisting of primarily C7 saturated hydrocarbons. Heptane is severely hydrotreated to remove aromatics and olefins and meets the definition of non-photochemically reactive as defined by 66/3 Rule requirements

Textile Spirits

Textile Spirits is a light aliphatic solvent consisting of C6-C7 saturated hydrocarbons. Textile Spirits is a clear colorless, flammable liquid miscible with most common organic solvents and is similar to hexane.

Special Lactolite

Special Lactolite is a low-boiling aliphatic solvent consisting primarily of C6-C8 hydrocarbons. This product is a clear, colorless, flammable liquid that is miscible with most organic solvents and it has a characteristic light aliphatic odor.
