Is turpentine also called banana oil?
Thread Content
Turpentine is also known as banana oil; so if one looks up the MSDS for turpentine, can banana oil be used as a substitute? I searched on Baidu, and these two items share some identical names with turpentine. Could some expert please give me some advice!!!

The thinner for alkyd paints is turpentine, while the thinner for nitro paints is banana oil. Moreover, their hazard code numbers are also different: turpentine has the code 33643, while nail polish remover has the code 32198. Of course, its components also differ. One has a high flash point, and the other has a medium flash point.
