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 liquid that be colorless to slightly yellow. It has a wide range of applications because it offers very high solvency, high boiling point, low freezing point, and ease of handling..
N-Methylpyrrolidone (NMP) is a water-miscible organic solvent. NMP is widely used in the petrochemical industry, and in the manufacturing of various compounds, including pigments, insecticides, herbicides, and fungicides. NMP increasingly is used as a substitute for chlorinated hydrocarbons.
