naphtha
Volatile cleaning fluid
Naphtha is a flammable liquid hydrocarbon mixture distilled from petroleum or coal tar.
It serves as a solvent and as feedstock for producing gasoline and petrochemicals.
The term covers several related products varying in volatility and composition: petroleum naphtha, coal-tar naphtha.
Historically, naphtha referred to any volatile flammable liquid.
