Type - Segment Analysis
Type 2 holds the largest market share in the white spirits market. Type 2 white spirit, also known as solvent extracted, is a combination of hydrocarbons, which is obtained as a raffinate from the solvent extraction process. The demand for type 2 white spirit is driven mainly by the growing demand from the paint & coating, adhesives, and cleaning chemical manufacturers. The increasing consumption of these compounds in the various end-use industries such as automotive, construction, composites, and chemicals, is another important factor leading to the high demand for type 2 white spirit. White spirit can be used as an extraction solvent, degreasing solvent, and as an aerosol solvent. It is used to clean paint brushes after usage in households. White spirit is a chemical mixture of alicyclic and aliphatic organic hydrocarbon atoms. It is derived from paraffin and is mainly used in painting as well as decorating works. Whereas the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) has set a recommended occupational exposure limit (REL) of 350 mg/m3 over an 8-hour workday and 1800 mg/m3 over 15 minutes.

Application - Segment Analysis
Paint thinner holds the largest market share in the White Spirits Market. Paint thinners are solvents that can dissolve paint and reduce viscosity of paint or “thin” it for use in sprayer applicators or when simply needing a thinner mixture to work with. Paint that has been left open will begin to harden and dry and become thicker. Thinner can counteract this. A number of other solvents can be used to remove paint. These include acetone, turpentine, naptha, xylene, methyl ethyl ketone (MEK), and denatured alcohol. Normally paint thinner is used to remove oil-based paint from brushes, rollers, equipment, and surfaces. However, there are many other applications and uses for paint thinner saving you money and time. For health hazard assessments, reference values (Derived No Effect levels, DNELs) are calculated from toxicology data and compared to estimated exposure levels
