Summary
The greener solvent guide by Beyond Benign was created based on existing solvent selection guides available in the literature (referenced in the attached PDF). It was meant to help synthesize the information in existing guides into a simple graphic that can be quickly referenced and placed in the workplace for ease-of-use and access. The guide is often printed as a magnet and placed in laboratories for reference. While there is no universal approach to solvent selection and chemists should be judicious in their choice of solvent they use for any given application, this guide can provide an excellent starting point and suggestions for alternative, greener solvents to explore.
