  • COMPOSITIONS ⁇ and 7 according to the invention are particularly interesting products for use in degreasing because of their rinsability to water, their safety of use, their biodegradability, their renewable origin and their degreasing efficiency vis-à-vis types of fats and oils very varied and usually used in the metal processing industry. They can advantageously replace in this function the toxic chlorinated solvents and dangerous to health that are TCE or DCM, or terpene compounds such as DP and lactates such as the LE whose flash points are generally considered to be insufficiently high to avoid the risk of explosion.
  • EXAMPLE 2 Film-forming compositions based on latex.
  • COMPOSITION A 2,2,4-trimethyl-1-3-pentanediol monoisobutyrate, as sold by the Company PERSTORB 0X0 under the designation NEXCOAT® 795 and commonly used as a coalescing agent.
  • This product is a glycol ether derivative.
  • COMPOSITION B butyl ester mixture of glutaric, succinic and adipic acids as marketed by INVISTA under the designation DBE-IB®.
  • COMPOSITION C dimethylisosorbide (DMI) prepared by the Applicant in the form of a colorless, odorless, low viscosity solution with a DMI purity of about 99.6%.
  • DMI dimethylisosorbide
  • COMPOSITION D mixture in equal parts by weight of COMPOSITION A (NEXCOAT® 795) and COMPOSITION C
  • COMPOSITION E mixture in equal parts, by weight, of COMPOSITION B (DBE - IB (D) and COMPOSITION C (DMI).
  • the latex used consists a dispersion in water of styrene / acrylic ester copolymer, marketed by CRAYVALLEY under the name CRAYMUL® 2423.
  • the viscosity of the latex at 1 day (“VISC 1”) and at 7 days (“VISC 7”) corresponds to a Brookfield viscosity (20 ° C., 20 rpm). It is expressed here in thousands of millipascals. seconds (10 3 mPa.s).
  • HOM homogeneity characteristics
  • VISC 1 VISC 7 HOM HAZE TG
  • COMPOSITIONS A or B have a very high viscosity and a gelled structure, thus losing all ability to be easily pumpable and dosable.
  • This fluidization advantageously makes it possible to prepare more concentrated latexes and derived compositions (aqueous paints, inks, coating colors) requiring a reduced drying time.
  • COMPOSITIONS D and E do not significantly alter the viscosity of the latex nor its rheological evolution over time.
  • the films obtained from COMPOSITION C are of general quality improved compared to control films.
  • the films obtained from COMPOSITIONS D and E, according to the invention are also of general quality even higher (homogeneous films, not cracked, values of "HAZE” relatively low), this quality can be connected, at least in part , at the "TG” values measured, which are remarkably lowered and could not be imagined with regard to the values obtained, inter alia, with the DMI alone (COMPOSITION C) on the one hand and with each of the "NEXCOAT® 755" products ( COMPOSITION A) or "DBE - IB ®” (COMPOSITION B) on the other hand.
  • compositions according to the invention may be advantageously used in the preparation of aqueous paints, varnishes, lacquers, glues, stains, inks, coating colors or more generally any compositions, in particular film-forming or coating, based on latex.
  • DMI dianhydrohexitol ether
  • a compound B such as a glycol ether derivative or a mixture of non-fatty polyacid esters
  • compositions that can be used according to the invention make it possible to prepare matt or satin aqueous paints with the possibility of total replacement of the coalescence agents normally used, such as glycol ethers.
  • EXAMPLE 3 Concentrated liquid composition for machining fluid of very high biodegradability.
  • An emulsion is prepared from a composition essentially containing, by weight: 25% water, 30.8% of rapeseed oil methyl esters marketed by the company NOVANCE under the tradename LUBRISORB® 926 65 (compound B ), 16.3% of a dimethylisosorbide (DMI) composition prepared by the Applicant and described in the above EXAMPLES (compound A), 15.4% of ⁇ cyclodextrin as marketed by the Applicant under the trademark KLEPTOSE®, 10% inhibitors corrosion and 1.5% surfactants, derived from sorbitan.
  • DMI dimethylisosorbide
  • Said emulsion is prepared by mixing, on a colloidal mill, an aqueous phase consisting of water, ⁇ -cyclodextrin and a part of the surfactants and an oily phase consisting of the other aforementioned ingredients including the esters. rapeseed oil and DMI.
  • the emulsion thus obtained is weakly viscous, easily dilutable with water, stable in time, safe because it does not contain products such as diethylene glycol ethers usually used in this type of formulation to adjust the viscosity and physical stability, and non-corrosive vis-à-vis steel in particular. It also has good lubricating properties and good surface wetting properties provided by both the rapeseed oil methyl esters and the DMI. Finally, it contains essentially only highly biodegradable and renewable products, which makes it removable by simple and non-polluting processes.
  • EXAMPLE 4 Cleaning compositions of a glass material.
  • compositions usable according to the invention in the treatment of a glass material and more particularly as solvents in the cleaning of glass plates soiled by a bitumen composition.
  • bitumen of the "70/100" type supplied by the EUROVIA Company, melted, is spread in a film about 0.5 to 1 mm thick on the glass plate.
  • bitumen thus spread is at ambient temperature, cotton pieces which are impregnated with the solvent compound to be tested are deposited thereon.
  • the cotton is covered with a glass bell to limit the evaporation of the solvent.
  • compositions are evaluated according to two tests, namely:
  • TEST 1 and TEST 2 were subjected to the following different compositions:
  • COMPOSITION T2 control: mixture of 65% by weight of COMPOSITION T1 (gas oil) and 35% by weight of a dimethylisosorbide composition (DMI) prepared by the Applicant and described in the preceding Examples (compound A),
  • COMPOSITION A mixture of 50% by weight of dipentene marketed by FLUKA (compound B) and 50% by weight of a dimethylisosorbide (DMI) composition prepared by the Applicant and described in EXAMPLES precedents (compound A),
  • COMPOSITION B (according to the invention): mixture of 25% by weight of d-limonene sold by the company Prodasynthe (compound B) and 75% by weight of a dimethylisosorbide composition
  • COMPOSITIONS A and B which can be used in accordance with the invention, can advantageously be used as solvents, including co-solvents, for the treatment of a glass material, for example for cleaning glass. 'a glass material contaminated with bitumen.
  • compositions are generally more effective than a composition based on diesel (Tl) or a composition combining diesel fuel and DMI (T2).
  • Tl diesel
  • T2 diesel fuel
  • T2 diesel fuel
