What are isoparaffins?
High boiling isoparaffins are synthesised by means of a so-called alkylation process. Shell chemicals companies offer a selection of isoparaffinic solvents including ShellSol* TD, ShellSol T, ShellSol TC and ShellSol OMS.

How are isoparaffins used?
Isoparaffins are virtually odourless making them particularly suitable for use in odour-free paints, printing inks, dry cleaning, wallpaper manufacture, photocopying, household sprays, fragrant polishes and hand cleaners. Their inertness and low solvency make isoparaffins the ideal carrier for catalysts in polymerisation processes.
