Xy Thinner 5LtThinner to be used in ZP Primer and general primer products . Xylene is used as a feedstock in the production of terephthalic acid and dimethyl terephthalate, both monomers used in the production of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) plastic bottles and polyester clothing. 98% of Xylene production, and half of all xylene, is used for polymer production.Xylene is often used as a solvent and in the printing, rubber, and leather industries.It is used as a cleaning agent for steel and for silicon wafers and chipsIt is used as a thinner for paint, and in paints and varnishes. It may be substituted for toluene to thin lacquers where slower drying is desired.It is found in small amounts in gasoline and airplane fuel.In animal studies it is often swabbed on the ears of rabbits to facilitate blood flow and collection, although the area must subsequently be cleansed with alcohol to prevent inflammation.In histology, xylene is also used for clearing the tissues following dehydration in preparation for paraffin wax infiltration. It is also used after sections have been stained to make them hydrophobic so that a coverslip may be applied with a resin in solvent.It is used as a carrier for acrylic based concrete sealers.It is used in the laboratory to make baths with dry ice to cool reaction vessels to low temperatures when required
