SBP-XX & LAWS 2
Pertamina SBP-XX & LAWS 2 Solvent
LAWS (Low Aromatic White Spirit) is a type of solvent that is commonly used in the manufacturing of paints, varnishes, and other coatings. It is derived from petroleum and is composed primarily of aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons. White spirit is called "low aromatic" when it has a low content of aromatic hydrocarbons, which are known to be harmful to human health. LAWS has a lower odor and is less toxic than traditional white spirit, which makes it safer to use in industrial and consumer applications. It is also less flammable and has a higher flashpoint, which makes it less likely to ignite and cause fires. It is highly effective at dissolving a wide range of organic compounds and resins, making it useful in the production of paints, varnishes, and inks.
LAWS is widely used for industrial applications such as thinner, cleaning agent in the paint and coatings industry as well as resins and printing inks.
SBP-XX (Special Boiling Point) is a solvent that is composed of a blend of aliphatic hydrocarbon compounds, naphtenic compounds, and a few aromatic compounds. This unique blend of chemicals gives SBP-XX a number of critical properties, including its density, boiling range, and odor. These properties make SBP-XX an ideal solvent for a wide range of applications, including adhesives and rubber solvent, paint and thinner, print ink, and pharmaceutical and cosmetic products. One of the key advantages of SBP-XX is its low toxicity, which is due to its low benzene content. Benzene is a known carcinogen and exposure to it can be harmful to human health. SBP-XX has a low benzene content, making it a safer choice for many applications.
SBP-XX is widely used for adhesives and rubber solvent, paint, thinner, print ink, pharmaceutical and cosmetic products.
