Diluant Solvent
A diluent solvent is a liquid substance used to dilute or thin other substances, making them less concentrated without changing their chemical properties. Diluents are commonly used in various industries, including pharmaceuticals, paints and coatings, food and beverage, and cosmetics, to adjust the viscosity, concentration, or application properties of products.
Many diluent solvents can have significant environmental impacts if not managed properly. For instance, volatile organic compounds (VOCs) released from solvents can contribute to air pollution and smog formation. It is essential to follow best practices for using, storing, and disposing of solvents to minimize their environmental footprint.
