Aromatic solvents
The aromatic solvents contain a benzene like ring and are produced from the distillation of petroleum or coal tar. Common
aromatic solvents are toluene, xylene, phenol, benzene, styrene, diethylbenzene, ethylbenzene. Aromatic solvents are
used as components of paint strippers, and in some engine cleaners. The presence of the benzene ring like structure
in these solvents often makes them a health hazard and some of these solvents are known or suspected carcinogens.
