Solvents - chemical compounds usedfor dissolving various substances. For practical domestic purposes, they are no less necessary than for use in industrial production. On the shelves of construction stores you can see bottles with a funny inscription "Gasoline-galosh". This is the trade name for organic solvent often used in everyday life.
Description of physical properties
"Gasoline-galosh", or "Nefras C2-80 / 120" -low-volatile transparent colorless liquid with a strong characteristic odor, obtained by direct distillation of oil. It has an average dissolving ability with respect to varnishes and paints, evaporates quickly and at the same time leaves no odor on the treated surface. Technical parameters and physico-chemical parameters are regulated by TU 38.401-67-108-92. In fact, "Nefras C2-80 / 120" is a purified gasoline, a solvent with high performance.
Appointment
The main purpose of "Kalosh" - diluting varnishesand paints to the desired consistency, cleaning tools, washing parts, degreasing surfaces and so on. In addition, "Galosha-gasoline" is used to dissolve rubber glue, in the manufacture of mastics and inks for printing, for degreasing leather and fabrics before dyeing, for cleaning electrical equipment and washing metal parts. The popularity that Nefras S2-80 / 120 has gained is due to its high volatility. It evaporates faster than alcohol and acetone and does not stain.
Application
To obtain the desired viscosity of paint and varnishthe composition of "Kaloshu" add small portions and mix thoroughly until smooth. For cleaning and degreasing any surface, use a cloth moistened with solvent. "Nefras S2-80 / 120" is often used for washing parts in the repair of engines, automatic transmission, various aggregate units.
"Gasoline-galosh" can serve as fuel forcatalytic heaters, blowtorches, tourist equipment. It is important that in this case less soot is formed, the smell is not so pronounced, and most importantly, the fuel line is less often clogged than when using conventional fuel.
Security conditions
"Gasoline-galosh" - flammable liquid,therefore, when working with a solvent, it is forbidden to use open fire, smoking. You should also be wary of situations involving the occurrence of sparks from a strike. For extinguishing flared solvents used chemical foam from fire extinguishers, carbon dioxide.
Since gasoline has a sharp characteristicsmelling and irritating to the respiratory organs, skin and eyes, then in industrial plants work should be done in rooms with a valid supply and exhaust ventilation, and in everyday life - in a well-ventilated room or in fresh air.
Rubber gloves should be worn to protect hands.gloves, and when working with spray paintwork materials - use respirators of different degrees of protection. In case of contact with the skin, wash it off with plenty of warm, soapy water.
Storage conditions
“Nefras S2-80 / 120” should be stored in tightly closed containers, away from electrical and heating devices, protected from sunlight. Rooms should be cool and dry.
