What is Acetone? Why Are Alternatives Necessary?
Acetone is a colorless liquid. Acetone is a solvent that can break down materials, such as paint, varnish, nail polish, oil spills, grease, or gum. Other names for acetone include propanone, dimethyl ketone, 2-propanone, and beta-ketopropane.
Acetone is used in everything from nail polish and paint remover to plastic manufacturing, oil spill clean-ups, and more. Acetone can become dangerous when people become exposed to large quantities. Acetone also has extremely high flammability and is considered a hazardous waste material that needs to be handled and disposed of properly.
To dispose of acetone properly, a hazardous waste plan is necessary. If exposed to large quantities of acetone, poison control needs to be contacted. These added hassles, plus the several negative health effects of long-term exposure, make the need for an acetone substitute a priority. VertecBio ELSOL AR is that perfect alternative to protect your employees, your bottom line, and the wider world.
