General description
EMPLURA®
EMPLURA® is our low-cost alternative to high-purity qualities. With EMPLURA we offer a range of solvents for a plurality of basic applications in non-regulated industries and for less demanding applications, preparative laboratory work and cleaning purposes. EMPLURA solvents provide adequate specifications with the most important parameters.
Application

Insights into the mechanism of the solvolysis of propylene oxide over titanium silicalite-1: a theoretical study.: This research offers a theoretical exploration of the solvolysis mechanisms of propylene oxide facilitated by titanium silicalite-1, contributing valuable insights into the catalytic processes involving similar volatile organic compounds (Qin et al., 2023).

Measuring the quantity of harmful volatile organic compounds inhaled through masks.: This study evaluates the levels of harmful volatile organic compounds, including 1-methoxy-2-propanol, that are inhaled through various types of masks, highlighting the potential health risks and the effectiveness of masks in blocking organic vapors (Ryu and Kim, 2023).

Features and Benefits
We are committed to bringing you Greener Alternative Products, which adhere to one or more of The 12 Principles of Green Chemistry. Monoethers, especially propylene glycol methyl ether (PGME), are widely used as pollution-free solvents in fine chemical synthesis in pharmaceutical, chemical and cosmetic industries and thus aligns with "Safer Solvents and Auxiliaries".
