N-Ethylpyrrolidone-2

N-Ethylpyrrolidone (NEP) as an aprotic and highly polar organic solvent is completely miscible with water and is used as a replacement for N-Methylpyrrolidone (NMP) in many application fields such as the coatings industry and cleaning applications due to its very similar solvent properties. Further application fields for NEP include the pharmaceutical and electronic industries.

NEP is a polar, aprotic, organic solvent that is completely miscible with water and dissolves many plastics like polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) and polyether sulfone (PES).
