DMSO can soften various types of paints (e.g., acrylic, epoxy), varnishes, and adhesives by disrupting polymer chains or swelling the coating, thereby aiding mechanical removal.
Growing environmental regulations and heightened consumer safety demands have driven the search for alternative paint-stripping solvents to replace hazardous chemicals like methylene chloride and N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP). However, any replacement must maintain high performance while meeting stricter safety standards.
Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) presents a compelling solution, combining strong solvent capabilities with low toxicity, making it highly effective for paint removal across multiple substrates.
Compared to traditional hazardous solvents like methylene chloride and NMP, DMSO stands out as a safer yet equally efficient alternative.
