High-performance solvent with low toxicity for advanced cleaning applications
Powerful solvents are essential for effective formulations in demanding applications such as graffiti removers, paint strippers and industrial paint thinners. Kuraray’s MMB-Ac (3-methoxy-3-methyl-1-butyl acetate) offers both powerful solvency and a favourable toxicity profile, making it an ideal choice for high-performance cleaners.
Effective cleaning without labelling requirements
MMB-Ac is widely used in the cleaning industry as a high-efficiency solvent, particularly in formulations such as graffiti removers. Thanks to its low toxicity, MMB-Ac enables the development of high-performing cleaners that a not subject to labelling requirements, offering both performance and regulatory advantages.
Superior degreasing power for industrial applications
MMB-Ac is particularly effective in industrial cleaners and paint strippers, due to its strong lipophilic nature, which enhances the solubility for waxes, resins, and oily contaminants. The excellent degreasing properties of MMB-Ac makes this solvent an ideal ingredient for use in industrial cleaning agents.
Kuraray was the first company in Europe to register MMB-Ac under REACH, ensuring easy and compliant integration into your formulations.
