Key benefits

TamiSolve NxG is a safer alternative to commonly used dipolar aprotic solvents like N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP) and N-ethyl-2-pyrrolidone (NEP). In many applications, it can be used to replace NMP or NEP with little or no reformulation.

TamiSolve NxG works well in a variety of applications. It works as a cosolvent and a photoresist stripper in microelectronic manufacturing. TamiSolve NxG can also be used for cleaning molds or tools related to polyurethane foam or epoxy resins. 

Its lower volatility gives TamiSolve NxG a favorable safety, health and environmental profile. Products with TamiSolve NxG contain fewer potentially harmful ingredients and have a lower odor.
