CAS NO:67784-80-9
EC NO:267-055-2

Product Description of Soybean Oil Methyl Ester:
These bio-based, biodegradable, non toxic, low VOC/ high performing solvents derived from American grown soybeans are the “green” choice for solvents which meet stringent EPA clean air and other environmental challenges.

Chemical Properties of Soybean Oil Methyl Ester:
Soybean Oil Methyl Ester, high in organic spheroids (VOCs), high gloss, non-native and effective solubility compatible with other standards and most metals, organics and elastomers.

Application of Soybean Oil Methyl Ester:
-Biodiesel additive, 
-base stock, 
-lubricants, 
-solvent, 
-parts cleaner, 
-asphalt cleaner, 
-hair gel, 
-skin, 
-beeswax, 
-waxes, 
-land improvement.

Soybean Oil Methyl Ester is a methyl ester derived from soybean oil. As a vegetable based solvent, methyl soyate has low viscosity and excellent solvency.

Uses of Soybean Oil Methyl Ester:
-Industrial Cleaning Solvent
-Metal Cleaning
-Precision Cleaning Replacement
-Car Care Products

Soybean Oil Methyl Ester includes a variety of applications that range from cosmetic/ personal uses to industrial applications.  Due to Soybean Oil Methyl Ester’s slow evaporation time, this becomes an advantage with ink removal and paint stripping. 
Due to its cleaning properties, the solvent is appearing more in consumer products including hand sanitizers, skin lotions, nail polish removers, and automobile polishes.  In an industrial setting, Methyl Soyate is an ideal solvent for industrial cleaning and degreasing. 
Soybean Oil Methyl Ester may also be used within paints and lacquers which raises the flashpoint and slows the overall drying time. Additionally, it is found within adhesive and anti-graffiti products for cleanup.  Beyond Soybean Oil Methyl Ester’s cleaning applications, different forms may be used as renewable fuel for diesel engines.

Soybean Oil Methyl Ester is a soy-based derivative produced by transesterification of soy oil esters.  Transesterification is the process of exchanging an organic group of an ester with an organic group of an alcohol; these reactions often involve an acid or base catalyst.  

Soybean Oil Methyl Ester includes the following properties:

-Low in VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds),
-High flashpoint,
-And Nontoxic

Along with the above properties, Soybean Oil Methyl Ester evaporates slowly which is prolongs the solvent action time and reduces the solvent usage.  Furthermore, Soybean Oil Methyl Ester has gained more popularity as a carrier solvent alternative for MEK, Toluene, and Xylene in coating products, and as a replacement for MEK and MeCL in adhesives.  Additionally, the previously mentioned chemicals are suspected carcinogens while Soybean Oil Methyl Ester has no evidence towards being a carcinogen.
