Coating remover and paint stripper containing N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone, methanol, and sodium methoxide

摘要: A quasi-azeotropic stripper composition for the removal of paint or other organic coatings from metallic surfaces and including a formulation containing 1-10% by weight an alcoholate activator consisting sodium methoxide, 10-14 20% coupling agent co-solvent methanol, 70-89% aprotic polar solvent essentially N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone. The is desirable use in work place since it non-halogenated, relatively non-volatile under normal ambient conditions, also possesses reasonably useful high flash point.
