List of Specifications with Solvent References
Subject: Process Specifications with Solvent Callouts
Reference: Not applicable
Description of Problem:
Environmental regulations in many areas require use of low vapor pressure solvents.
This page is designed to provide a list of specifications which have been revised to include low vapor pressure solvents. Many of the specifications no longer call out specific solvents. Instead, they now refer to BAC5750. See the materials control section (section 5) of your specification. Contact the manufacturer for vapor pressure information. Confirm that the vapor pressure is low enough to meet your regulations.
