DEGREASER Types of Degreasers: Solvent-based Degreasers: These degreasers contain organic solvents such as mineral spirits, kerosene, or perchloroethylene. They are effective at dissolving and removing oily residues but may pose health and environmental risks due to their volatile nature. Water-based Degreasers: Also known as aqueous degreasers, these formulations use water as a base along with surfactants and detergents to emulsify and lift grease and dirt from surfaces. Water-based degreasers are generally safer and more environmentally friendly than solvent-based options. Biodegradable Degreasers: These are specially formulated degreasers that contain biodegradable ingredients, making them environmentally preferable. They are effective for cleaning applications while minimizing ecological impact.
