Oxygenated solvents

This group is solvents whose molecular structure consists of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. Their high solvent power and pleasant smell, along with their high rate of evaporation, makes them highly versatile solvents. They are applied in pharmacy, cosmetics, gasoline additives, antifreeze.

Acetone

Acetone is a colourless, volatile, flammable and polar (miscible in water) compound. Given its high solvent properties and its high rate of evaporation, it is used to dissolve oils, both natural and synthetic, resins, gums, waxes, etc. It is particularly used in the extraction and purification of many organic compounds. It is also used as a solvent in paints, adhesives, inks, etc.
