Solvents are chemical compounds that physically dissolve other substances (solid, liquid or gaseous) to form a homogeneous, molecularly disperse solution without changing them chemically. Common solvents are usually liquids at room temperature, but solids and gases can also act as solvents for other substances. Solvents are chemically unreactive and only interact with the solute through various physical forces. The dissolved substance can therefore be recovered unchanged from such solutions after the solvent has been separated off by evaporation, distillation, crystallization or extraction.
MCAS offers you two groups of solvents, pure solvents such as acetone or isopropanol, as well as solvent mixtures of two or more different solvents such as isoparaffins or petrol. If you need special solvent mixtures, we will be happy to manufacture them promptly according to your individual requirements.
For many of our solvents you will find special applications or areas of application in our INDUSTRIES category. This data was determined in cooperation with our customers and is intended to support you in identifying alternative products to the chemicals or chemical products you are currently using.
We make our products available to you in the concentrations and container sizes customary on the market and for all common industrial purposes. Our acids, lyes and heat transfer media are available in 20 l, 30 l, 60 l and 220 l plastic canisters as well as in IBCs with variable filling quantities. Standard container sizes of our solvents are 20 l, 30 l and 216 l metal or steel containers as well as IBCs, also with variable filling quantities.
The standard filling quantity of our solids is 25 kg, usually packed on pallets of 40 bags.
As a service of our company, we offer you the opportunity to adapt our products individually to your needs. If our standard concentrations and container sizes are not usable / practicable for you, we will gladly manufacture the required products according to your individual specifications.
Please note that we have to calculate a minimum purchase quantity for individual customer productions. This is usually a complete pallet per product and container size.
With our private label service, we offer our customers the opportunity to promote and sell high-quality chemicals and chemical products as well as products based on customer-specific mixtures and formulations under their own trade name.
Please let us know the desired products, stating the filling quantities, purchase quantities per delivery and the total annual quantity. After checking your information, we will be happy to make you an offer as soon as possible.
MCAS offers a variety of pure solvents for all common industrial applications. Please note that the designation PURE in this case does not refer to the purity (concentration) of the solvent, but states that the solvent only consists of one substance - e.g. acetone or isopropanol. The advantage of pure solvents over solvent mixtures is the availability of a large number of chemical and physical data such as boiling point, flash point, density and many others. This data enables the user to select the solvent that is right for him based on this data. Some of this data is also available for solvent mixtures, but to a much lesser extent.

In addition to our pure solvents, we also offer you a large number of solvent mixtures for a wide range of applications. Our white spirits are used - in addition to numerous other purposes - as a solvent for paints and varnishes and as a raw material in the manufacture of adhesives. Our isoparaffins are also widely used in industry. Just like the test benzines, they serve as solvents for paints and varnishes, but are also used as additives in numerous cleaning agents, for example.
