The words "solvent" and "drug" are extremely broad, and so there are some compounds that are both solvents and drugs. But one does not indicate the other, at all. Also, the solvents that are drugs (in the fact that they exert a pharmacokinetic effect) are not all the same in there workings and properties as a drug.
Solvents are not classified under drug classes like stimulants or depressants. They are considered inhalants and are typically inhaled for their psychoactive effects. Continued abuse of solvents can lead to serious health consequences.
A solvent is something you use to dissolve something. It is neither an upper or a downer...or even a drug for that matter. But hell take some and see what's up, you know?
solvents are sniffed only
No, not all solvents are explosive. Solvents can vary in their chemical properties and flammability. While some solvents may be flammable or have explosive properties, many solvents are not inherently explosive. It is important to handle all solvents with care and follow appropriate safety procedures.
Fat solvents are substances that can dissolve fats or lipids. Common fat solvents include organic solvents such as chloroform, ether, and benzene. These solvents are often used in laboratory settings for lipid extraction and purification processes.
Common non-conductive solvents include hexane, diethyl ether, toluene, and dichloromethane. These solvents do not conduct electricity because they lack the ions required for electrical conduction.
From seconds in the case of solvents, to minutes in the case of heroin, to hours, and to days in the case of Tylenol/Panadol. (The Tylenol method is horrible, very painful!)
a solution can have 3 solvents.
Immiscible solvents are solvents that do not mix together to form a homogeneous solution. Instead, they form separate layers when mixed. This occurs due to differences in polarity or chemical characteristics between the solvents.
A solution can have one or more solvents. In a binary solution, there are two solvents, and in a ternary solution, there are three solvents, and so on. Each solvent plays a role in dissolving the solute and determining the properties of the solution.
Esters are commonly used in the production of flavors and fragrances, as well as in plastics, solvents, and lubricants. They are also utilized in pharmaceuticals as drug carriers and in cosmetics as emollients.
Ethanol and acetone are common solvents. Co-solvents can include propylene glycol and glycerin to fully dissolve.
