About NMP, 1-Methyl-2-Pyrrolidone, ACS Grade

N-Methyl-2-Pyrrolidone (NMP) is a polar aprotic, low viscosity liquid with a high boiling point. NMP has strong organic/inorganic compound solvency, is miscible with water at all temperatures, and has excellent chemical and thermal stability. It is a colorless liquid, although impure samples can appear yellow. Due to its polar nature and low surface tension, it is widely employed as a cleaning agent

NMP is widely used in the petrochemical industry, and in the manufacturing of various compounds, including pigments, cosmetics, insecticides, herbicides, and fungicides. NMP increasingly is used as a substitute for chlorinated hydrocarbons.
