Explanation of terminology

What is solvent?

Solvents are liquids used to dissolve materials.For example, paint is essentially made up of pigment (color) and resin (material to solidify paint), however these ingredients alone would make viscosity too high and it would be difficult to apply such paint to walls and other surfaces.As such, these ingredients are dissolved in solvents and diluted to lower their viscosity and create a paint which can be applied to surfaces with ease.

What is plasticizer?

Plasticizers are additives which give materials flexibility and improve workability. As such, they are essential to plastic products.
