Sustainable and safer, plant derived bio-solvent replacement of MEK in many industrial applications. It’s used in formulation of coatings, laquers, paints, varniches, adhesives and inks products based on acrylics, polyesters, melamines and vinylics resins. It has a great solvency power for nitrocellulose and wood rosins as well. It’s very effectives as cleaner in industrial settings to remove different kinds of residues and soils. Suitable for cold deagreasing (e.g. after polymerization in sythesis reactors). ASTROBIO™ K2 is also available in cosmetic grade for formulating eco-friendly nail varnishes and polishers.

Sustainable and bio-based solvent blends ideal for urethane coating formulations. ASTROBIO™ NV grades are completely hydroxyl free specialties so they are compatible with systems containing reactive -NCO groups. They are used to formulate coatings, adhesives, paints and inks based on acrylics, epoxies, alkydics, vinylics, polyesters, melamines, urethanes, phenolics, MDI and ABS resins. They have great solvency power for wood rosins, modified rosins, nitrocellulose, modified cellulose, some chlorinated polymers and nylons as well. ASTROBIO™ NV grades are also a great choice for formulating bio-based and sustainable paint strippers, PU cleaners, machinery and industrial detergents.
