Want to get rid of acetone?
01 Mar 2003
According to Chymera, organic solvents like acetone are not only flammable and inherently dangerous, but also easily pass through the skin into the bloodstream, carrying other dissolved matter into the body and causing proven damage to the nervous system and other internal organs.
Chymera says RST-5 is a completely aqueous cleaner with an average pH of 7 (pH of skin).
It removes most uncured polymers - resin, grease, oil and ink as well as paint, inks and sealants - from a wide variety of tools as well as hands. They say it can replace solvents in most cases.
The company also says since RST-5 is not a solvent but a dispersant, it causes the resin to release from hands and tools as small particles that sink to the bottom of the cleaning tank.
They say this allows the resin waste to be separated from the RST-5 so you throw the waste away and re-use the cleaner.
Finally, they claim using RST-5 saves money and say companies that have switched from organic solvents to RST-5 report up to 30% reduction in costs, as well as a healthier working environment and lower insurance costs.
