ISO Propyl Alcohol (IPA) is a colorless, flammable chemical compound with a strong odor and quick evaporation mostly used as a solvent for protective coatings, Inks, cleaning fluid, Anti-freeze/deicing agent, Lacquer & Thinner formulation especially for dissolving oils as leaves zero oil traces. Also used for industrial processes and pharmaceutical applications.
Normal Propyl Alcohol (NPA) is a colorless liquid with very mild odor, similar to that of ethanol and is completely soluble in water. It is useful in organic synthesis, a chemical intermediate, and as a coating solvent also is widely used in flexographic and other printing ink applications.
Nitrocellulose is a highly flammable compound formed by nitrating cellulose through exposure to nitric acid or another powerful nitrating agent. Its dry very quickly. Nitrocellulose is base material for coatings, lacquers /varnishes, Printing inks and leather finishes the high flexibility of nitrocellulose is a significant asset. Another very important advantage, particularly with food packaging, is that the solvents evaporate completely.
