Methyl soyate
Original: Petroleum cleaning solvents (mineral spirits / naphtha)
Proposed offset: Methyl soyate
Use: Degreasers, ink or adhesive removal and selected cleaning solvents
Claim to investigate: Soy-derived solvent route that the supplier explicitly identifies as a mineral-spirits / naphtha replacement candidate.
Limits: Water insolubility requires a suitable emulsifier for aqueous cleaners. Evaporation, residue, rinsing and material compatibility differ from petroleum solvents.
