Composition and Characteristics

OMC 10 is a refined solvent derived from light fractions of petroleum distillates, with a high degree of purity, belonging to the category of special solvents. Its formula is a mixture of normal-chain paraffinic hydrocarbons, with very high purity and chemical stability. This ensures not only effectiveness in the testing process, but also safety in its handling, since the product is not aggressive to the environment.

OMC 10 is colorless, with a Saybolt color of +30, and has no odor when cold. Furthermore, it is free of background fluorescence and has a water content of less than 50 ppm, meeting the most stringent quality standards, such as those required by the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) in specifications 21 CFR 172.878 and 178.3620 (A) for direct and indirect contact with food, and by the USP (United States Pharmacopeia).

Compliance with Quality Standards

OMC 10 meets a series of standards and specifications required to guarantee its purity and quality. The product conforms to the following standards:

  • FDA: Meets the purity and safety requirements for products that come into contact with food and pharmaceutical substances.
  • USP: Complies with the quality standards required by the United States Pharmacopeia, including parameters for neutrality and sulfur compounds.
  • DAB-8: Approved in the German Pharmacopoeia’s luminosity (extinction) test, guaranteeing superior quality.

Advantages and Applications

In addition to its exceptional purity, OMC 10 is highly effective for magnetic particle baths, ensuring that the non-destructive testing process is carried out with precision. The product is widely used in tests that require high quality and safety, such as in the automotive, aeronautical, and materials industries.

Its chemical stability and high purity properties make it a reliable choice for companies that require solvents that meet the highest standards. Furthermore, its environmentally friendly composition and the absence of polynuclear compounds make it an environmentally friendly option.

Precautions and Safety

Although OMC 10 is a high-purity, high-quality product, its handling requires specific care. Because it is composed of low molecular weight hydrocarbons, the product can exhibit high dermal permeability, potentially causing skin irritation. Therefore, the use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) is essential, such as:

  • PVC gloves and aprons
  • Protective eyewear
  • Half-face mask against organic vapors

These measures ensure operator safety and integrity during the solvent application process.

The OMC 10 stands out in the market as a high-quality magnetic particle vehicle, with characteristics that guarantee superior performance in non-destructive testing. Its compliance with international safety and quality standards, combined with its high-purity composition, makes it an indispensable choice for industries seeking excellence and reliability. With safety, performance, and environmental responsibility, the OMC 10 is the ideal solution for the most demanding tests. Contact our technical consultants and get a quote.
