How Our Products Are Used
Our chemicals are found in a range of adhesives and sealants.
AdvanSix Acetone NF Grade
Acetone (also known as dimethyl ketone and 2-propanone) is a clear, colorless, low-boiling, flammable, volatile liquid characterized by rapid evaporation and a faintly aromatic, sweetish odor. It is readily miscible in most organic solvents and completely miscible, in all proportions, in water. Acetone is one of the simplest aliphatic ketones, and is an excellent solvent for a wide range of gums, resins, waxes, fats, greases, oils, dyestuffs and cellulosics. It is widely used as a chemical intermediate in the production of methyl isobutyl ketone and other solvents, and in the production of such important chemicals as bis-phenol-A and methyl methacrylate. It is also used in the manufacture of a wide variety of coatings and plastics
AdvanSix Isopropyl Alcohol (IPA)
AdvanSix Isopropyl Alcohol (IPA), also known as isopropanol or 2-propanol, is a colorless, flammable organic compound with a distinct alcoholic odor. It plays a pivotal role in the production of a diverse range of industrial and household chemicals and is a ubiquitous component in products like antiseptics, disinfectants, hand sanitizers, and detergents. IPA is frequently employed as a solvent, a chemical intermediate, a medical disinfectant, and finds extensive usage in laboratory applications due to its versatile properties and effectiveness.
EZ-Blox®
EZ-Blox® offers a safe, cost-effective and proven alternative to MEKO. It is designed to optimize the performance of alkyd-based paint systems by preventing a surface skin from forming when the product comes into contact with atmospheric oxygen. This, in turn, improves paint performance and reduces waste. Learn more.
