Industrial Solvents – Bulk Chemical Solutions for Manufacturing, Cleaning, and Production

Industrial solvents are essential to nearly every major industry — from coatings and manufacturing to pharmaceuticals and chemical synthesis. These high-purity liquids dissolve, extract, or disperse materials to facilitate key industrial processes. At RealChemStore, we supply industrial-grade solvents in bulk quantities to meet the exacting standards of engineers, manufacturers, and industrial procurement teams.

What Industrial Solvents Include

Industrial solvents are classified by their chemical structure and solubility characteristics. Each type is chosen for its ability to achieve precise technical performance in production or processing.

1. Organic Solvents

These include carbon-based compounds widely used in coatings, cleaning, and synthesis:

  • Acetone – Fast-evaporating solvent for coatings, adhesives, and plastics.

  • Ethanol – Versatile solvent used in pharmaceuticals, cleaning, and cosmetics.

  • Isopropanol (IPA) – Common in electronics cleaning, inks, and coatings.

  • Methanol – Applied in chemical synthesis and fuel production.

2. Aromatic Solvents

Known for excellent solvency and stability:

  • Toluene – Used in paints, adhesives, and sealants.

  • Xylene – Common in industrial coatings, rubber, and chemical intermediates.

3. Chlorinated Solvents

Powerful solvents for degreasing and precision cleaning:

  • Dichloromethane (DCM) – Utilized in extraction and paint stripping.

  • Trichloroethylene (TCE) – Applied in metal cleaning and chemical manufacturing.

4. Polar and Non-Polar Solvents

Used for specific applications depending on solubility needs:

  • Hexane – Non-polar solvent used in oil extraction and polymer production.

  • Acetonitrile – Polar solvent for chromatography and pharmaceutical processes.

  • Ethyl Acetate – Used in coatings, inks, and adhesives.

Major Industrial Applications

Industrial solvents play a vital role across sectors:

  • Chemical Manufacturing: Used in reaction media, purification, and extraction.

  • Coatings & Paints: Serve as carriers and viscosity modifiers.

  • Pharmaceuticals: Enable controlled formulation and crystallization processes.

  • Cleaning & Degreasing: Remove contaminants from metals, electronics, and machinery.
