Supplier Qualification Packet
One zipped download containing the TDS, SDS, latest lot COA (when available), and a fresh Letter of Continuing Guaranty for Mineral Spirits - Odorless Solvent & Thinner Technical Grade. Every file included is SHA-256 hashed and listed in a manifest your QA team can audit.
Applications
- Used for painting, cleaning, and mechanics work as a highly refined, very low odor solvent.corecheminc.com
- Solvent fluid for aerosols, cleaning, coatings, household products, liquid toners, metalworking and radical polymerization processes — stated for a high-purity synthetic isoparaffinic odorless mineral spirits, not for technical-grade material.exxonmobilchemical.com
Applications are drawn from published manufacturer and supplier documentation; each is sourced. Suitability for a specific use is the buyer's to confirm.
Storage & Handling
- Recommended Storage
- Keep containers tightly closed in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from heat, sparks, open flame and other ignition sources. No smoking. Do not pressurize, cut or weld containers. Ground and bond containers when transferring.Adjudicated
- Handling Precautions
- Eliminate ignition sources. Use chemical-resistant nitrile or PVA gloves. Bond and ground all transfer equipment. Vapors heavier than air — control ventilation accordingly.Class-level guidance — not product-specific; the SDS controls.
- Incompatibilities
- Strong oxidizing agents (chlorates, nitrates, peroxides), halogens, strong acids and alkalis.Adjudicated
- Shelf Life
- Consult Technical Services for product-specific shelf life
For full hazard, PPE, and emergency response guidance, refer to the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for this product. The SDS controls in all cases where guidance differs.
Packaging & Logistics
Shipping Description (US DOT)
UN1268, Petroleum distillates, n.o.s. (Mineral spirits), 3, PG III
Packaging-dependent regulation: Non-bulk packaging (≤ 119 gal, e.g. drums, pails, cans) ships as NON-REGULATED under the combustible-liquid reclassification (49 CFR 173.150(f)). Bulk packaging (totes/IBC > 119 gal) ships fully regulated under the DOT profile shown above. The combustible-liquid reclassification does not apply to transportation by vessel or aircraft, except where other means of transportation is impracticable (49 CFR 173.120(b)(2)).
Sourced from 49 CFR 172.101. Confirm against shipping documents and carrier requirements before tender.
