220–240 Dearomatized Solvent: Price, Spec & SDS

This grade is usually reviewed when D80 is no longer sufficient, but a heavier high-flash route may not be required. It is a distillation-range grade, not a classic flash-point grade label, and it is typically assessed on actual specification fit, practical availability and approval-stage documentation.

Current market reality: availability can depend on allocation, timing and supply route. Not every enquiry can be executed under standard conditions. If the requirement is time-sensitive or part of an ongoing production process, early commercial validation is the safer route.
Flash point minimum 86 °C for buyers needing more headroom than lighter high-flash dearomatized grades.
Boiling range 217–255 °C with a tight, well-defined distillation profile.
Current spec and SDS can be shared during the quotation process, subject to the actual supply route.
Bulk, IBC or drums depending on volume, route and current packaging practicality.

Market reality

Why serious buyers validate this grade early instead of assuming it will work

Most failed or delayed enquiries in this category come from wrong grade selection, timing mismatch or documentation issues, not from the first price discussion.

01
Timing risk
The grade may not be available in the required window, or not under standard supply conditions.
02
Wrong grade chosen
In some cases D80 is still sufficient. In others, a D100-type route is actually required. Incorrect grade selection is a common source of delay.
03
Boiling range misunderstood
This is a distillation-range grade. Buyers should validate the actual specification fit instead of relying on naming assumptions.
04
Approval friction
First orders often stop at the current spec, SDS or internal compliance gate rather than at the commercial discussion.

Grade position

A distillation-range grade, not a classic D-cut label

This grade is best understood by its distillation profile. Buyers often compare it with higher-flash dearomatized grades such as D80 or D100, but its main identity is not a classic flash-point family label. It is a narrow-range dearomatized hydrocarbon route defined by the actual specification. That distinction matters when reviewing substitutions, approvals and equivalent sourcing discussions.

Commercially, it often enters the discussion when a buyer needs more flash-point headroom than D80 provides, while a heavier route may be more than necessary. The right answer, however, comes from the current specification, the intended process and the practical supply route.

Important: these values are summarized from the supplied specification used to build this page. Buyers should always review the current full sales specification and SDS during quotation. Equivalent or near-equivalent materials can be described differently by different suppliers, so the actual specification should always be compared instead of relying on naming alone.

Grade fit

When this 220–240 route usually makes sense and when it does not

This grade matters most when higher flash point and a defined distillation profile both matter. It should be chosen because the specification fits, not because the name sounds close enough.

01
Choose this route when
You need more flash-point headroom than D80 offers and the 217–255 °C boiling range fits the process or formulation requirement.
02
Stay with D80 when
The site and process already accept the lighter route. Moving up without a real technical driver only adds cost and complexity.
03
Move heavier when
The process, site rules or compliance framework clearly require a heavier or even higher-flash route.
04
Always verify
Final suitability depends on the actual specification, process temperatures, handling rules, approval standards and packaging route.
Before going further: if this grade is being evaluated as a replacement for D80 or as an alternative to a heavier route, this is typically the point where a quick commercial check avoids delays. In many cases D80 is still sufficient, a heavier route is actually required, or this 220–240 cut is not available in the required window.

Applications

Where this type of narrow-range high-flash solvent is commonly discussed in industrial use

The actual fit depends on the approved specification and intended use, but these are the discussions where buyers most often review this type of route.

Metalworking
Metalworking fluids and process oils
Relevant where both higher flash point and a defined boiling range matter for consistent in-use behaviour.
Release systems
Release-agent formulations
Discussed where the carrier requires a narrow profile and controlled evaporation behaviour.
Industrial cleaning
Higher-flash process cleaning
Considered where lighter routes are no longer acceptable but a significantly heavier route is not necessary.
Process fluids
Coatings and process-fluid discussions
Reviewed when flash point and distillation shape are both part of the formulation decision.
Printing
Blanket-wash and printing discussions
May be evaluated where buyers want more flash-point headroom while keeping a defined evaporation window.
Blending
General industrial blending
Useful for distributors and formulators needing a narrow-range dearomatized hydrocarbon route for industrial demand.
Substitution
Intermediate route assessment
Often reviewed as an intermediate answer when lighter and heavier options both look imperfect.
Supply continuity
Alternative sourcing reviews
Also relevant for buyers who already have a route and want a second sourcing discussion for continuity or benchmarking.

Buying checklist

What serious buyers usually check before sending an RFQ or opening internal approval

The fastest route to a good decision is to validate flash point, distillation fit, documents and packaging practicality before going too deep into the commercial side.

  • ◆
    Is the 86 °C flash point the right level? If the lighter route already meets the site requirement, stepping up may not add real value. If the requirement is materially higher, a heavier route may be more suitable.
  • ◆
    Does the 217–255 °C distillation range actually fit the process? This is one of the main reasons to choose the grade, and one of the main reasons to reject it.
  • ◆
    Will the current documentation support approval? First orders frequently stop at spec, SDS or compliance review.
  • ◆
    Is the route commercially executable now? Availability, packaging practicality, timing and route all change the realism of the enquiry.
  • ◆
    Are you comparing equivalent materials correctly? Compare the actual specification values, not only the naming style used by different suppliers.
Useful adjacent discussions: buyers often review this grade against D80, D100 or another narrow-range higher-flash hydrocarbon route. The right answer depends on the actual process, internal approval standards and current supply practicality.

Pricing logic
Commercially usable feedback
The objective is not a stale web price but grounded commercial guidance for your destination, volume and format.
Execution
Practical route review
Bulk versus IBC versus drums is not cosmetic. It changes cost, feasibility, timing and whether the discussion can become an order.

FAQ

Questions buyers ask before sending an enquiry or starting internal approval

What is a 220–240 dearomatized hydrocarbon solvent?
It is a narrow-range dearomatized hydrocarbon solvent identified by its distillation profile rather than by a classic flash-point grade label. The actual current specification always governs.
Is this a classic D-cut grade?
Not in the usual sense. Buyers often compare it with higher-flash dearomatized grades, but the core identity of the route is its actual distillation range and specification.
Where does it sit versus D80 and D100?
Commercially, it is often reviewed when D80 is no longer sufficient, but a heavier route may not be required. Final suitability depends on the actual process, site rules and approved documentation.
What values should buyers expect?
A supplied specification used for this page shows a minimum flash point of 86 °C, initial boiling point 217 °C, 50% boiling point minimum 227 °C and final boiling point maximum 255 °C. Actual quoted documentation always governs.
Can it be supplied in bulk, IBC and drums?
Yes, depending on volume, packaging practicality, route and current supply position.
Do you provide current specification and SDS?
Yes. Current sales specification and SDS can be shared during the quotation process, subject to the actual supply route and available producer documentation.
