Main uses: Used as a solvent, but also often as nitrocellulose, cellulose acetate, chlorinated rubber and PVC plasticizer, rare metal extractant, etc., heat exchange medium.
Due to its low surface tension, difficult to dissolve in water, it can be used as an industrial defoamer, effectively making the formed foam film in an unstable state and quickly defoaming.
Cannot be used in food/cosmetics.
