Badger cumene technology produces cumene from benzene and propylene. The reactions take place in the liquid phase and are catalyzed in fixed beds by proprietary zeolite catalysts available through ExxonMobil.
Paint thinner is a solvent used to reduce thickness of oil-based paints or clean up after their use. They can also be used to remove tar buildup and other compounds. Commercially, solvents labeled paint thinner are usually mineral spirits with a flash point at about 104Â°F (40Â°C).
Of all thinners, lacquer thinner is the most versatile and also the most complex. Other thinners, such as mineral spirits (paint thinner), naphtha, acetone, and methanol, are simply the single solvent, so their characteristics dont vary.Lacquer thinner is a combination of solvents chosen by manufacturers from different solvent families to give each thinner specific characteristics.o matter which type of lacquer thinner or blend of thinners you use, continue with the same ratio of thinner to lacquer. The amount of thinner required for optimum atomization is not affected by the speed the thinner evaporates from the applied film.
