What else can I help you with?
What are the fat solvents?
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.
What solvents can dissolve polypropylene?
hexane
Does tar dissolve in water?
No, tar does not dissolve in water because it is a nonpolar substance, while water is a polar substance. Polar substances dissolve in polar solvents, and nonpolar substances dissolve in nonpolar solvents.
What will lipids dissolve in?
Lipids are insoluble in water but can dissolve in organic solvents such as alcohol, ether, chloroform, and acetone. These solvents break down the nonpolar interactions between lipid molecules, allowing them to dissolve.
What solvent can dissolve PBT?
Common solvents that can dissolve PBT (polybutylene terephthalate) include chlorinated solvents like dichloromethane or chloroform, as well as aromatic solvents like toluene or xylene. It's important to use proper safety precautions when working with these solvents.
Can you spray acrylic lacquer over acrylic lacquer?
No, the solvents in lacquer are to hot and volatile. The lacquer will cause bubbling of the acrylic paint.
Can you spray paint over acrylic lacquer?
No, the solvents in lacquer are to hot and volatile. The lacquer will cause bubbling of the acrylic paint.
Does lacquer thinner have alcohol in it?
Lacquer thinner typically does not contain alcohol as its primary component. Instead, it is a mixture of solvents, including toluene, acetone, and methanol, which are used to dissolve lacquer and clean tools. While methanol is an alcohol, it is not the same as the ethanol found in beverages. Therefore, while some components may be alcohols, lacquer thinner is primarily classified as a solvent rather than an alcohol product.
How can you tell if something is cover with lacquer or varnish?
Shellac and lacquer are both fairly easy to identify because they will redissolve in their original solvents. If alcohol (solvent alcohol from the hardware store, not rubbing alcohol) dissolves it then it's shellac. If lacquer thinner softens it, then it's lacquer. (lacquer thinner will also dissolve shellac, but alcohol will not immediately soften lacquer, so do the alcohol check first.) If neither alcohol nor lacquer thinner immediately affect it, then it's probably varnish.* http://ths.gardenweb.com/forums/load/wood/msg0822004022412.html
Paint and lacquer solvents fall into what hazard category?
Paint and lacquer solvents generally fall into the flammable liquid hazard category. Some, however, are not flammable because they are water-based, rather than organic solvent-based.
Do all solvents dissolve everthing?
no
Is turpentine a lacquer thinner?
Turpentine is not specifically classified as a lacquer thinner; it is a solvent derived from pine resin primarily used for thinning oil-based paints and varnishes. While it can dissolve some types of resins and may be used in certain applications related to oil paints, lacquer thinners are typically composed of a mixture of solvents specifically formulated to thin lacquers and clean up lacquer-based products. Therefore, while turpentine may have similar uses, it is not a direct substitute for lacquer thinner.
Do polar solvents dissolve polar solvents?
Yes. Like dissolves like!
Is varnish or lacquer harvested in the Amazon Rainforest?
No, varnish and lacquer are manufactured products that are not harvested in the Amazon Rainforest. Varnish is typically made from resins, oils, and solvents, while lacquer is derived from the sap of the lacquer tree. These materials are not sourced from the Amazon Rainforest.
What are the fat solvents?
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.
How can I Dissolve glue from metal?
You can add water since glue is soluble while metal is not.That may work, provided that the glues'solvent' is water. -It won't work if the glue is petroleum based and needs acetone, lacquer thinner or other solvents.
What can dissolve?
Generally polar solvents dissolve polar solutes and vice versa.
