Introduction to the ACC Hydrocarbon Solvents Panel 

The Hydrocarbon Solvents Panel of the American Chemistry Council (ACC) was established in 1995 to address health, safety, occupational, and environmental issues pertaining to modern hydrocarbon solvents. The Panel sponsors and supports scientific research, addresses regulatory issues, and works to ensure that solvents continue to be recognized as important components in a wide range of commercial products and applications, such as coating formulations, adhesives, dry cleaning, electronics, and pharmaceuticals.
