PRODUCT INTRODUCTION
Description
Xylene is a colorless, flammable liquid with a sweet odor. It is primarily used as a solvent and is a common ingredient in paint thinners, printing inks, adhesives, and rubber and leather products. It is also used as a cleaner for industrial components such as silicon wafers, as a chemical intermediate in the production of other chemicals, and in specialized applications such as dissolving gutta-percha in dentistry.
