Coatings and Adhesives Formulation
Coatings and adhesives sometimes require the dissolving power of chlorinated solvents to solubilize the wide variety of thermoplastic ingredients. Methylene chloride and trichloroethylene feature rapid drying rates and low flammability that make them ideal for use in rubber cements, styrenics, polymethyl methacrylate and epoxies.
