High Performance, Low Dosage: Solvents that Boost Cleaning without Compromising Safety
Nowadays, several formulations, especially those used in high effort applications requiring fat removal and/or cleaning, are commonly composed of solvents that facilitates cleaning without compromising the integrity of the surface. Also, the process of developing these formulations also incorporates the safety of the end consumer, ease of use, reduction of time spent during use, and environmental impact reduction. Therefore, there are an increasing interest in research and tests that proven the solvents present in the formulations provide benefits in terms of effectiveness and safety, even when used in reduced quantities. Indorama Ventures' solvents play a crucial role providing flexibility in product formulation in the Home Care market because their physicochemical properties and high versatility granting formulators to manufacture more innovative products.
