Odor: Distinctive, sweet, and pungent
Chemical Formula:
Flammability: Highly flammable, with a low flash point
Solubility: Insoluble in water but mixes well with many organic solvents
Density: Less dense than water, so it floats on the surface

Common uses

Solvent: Used in paints, lacquers, glues, and as a thinner
Fuel: A component in gasoline, especially aviation gasoline
Industrial Chemical Production: A starting material for making other chemicals like TDI (for polyurethane foam), trinitrotoluene (TNT), dyes, and pharmaceuticals
Cosmetics: Found in some nail polishes and removers
Other applications: Used in printing, leather tanning, and as a cleaning agent in some pharmaceutical processes

Health and safety

Toxicity: Can be harmful if inhaled, ingested, or absorbed through the skin. Chronic exposure can lead to central nervous system depression and other serious health effects.
