This invention relates to a water dispersible formulation which contains at least one ether alcohol, water and a hydrocarbon present in a single phase in a percent weight ratio range of ether alcohol (90-50) : water (2-36) : hydrocarbon (25-0.9), wherein the ether alcohol is of the formula R<1>O(RO)nH (I) in which R is a C1-C4 alkylene group, n is at least 1, and R<1> is a C1-C4 alkyl or an aryl group. The formulation is suitable for cleansing drill cuttings, rock cuttings, electronic components, army tanks, ships tanks and the like, and for removal of oils, waxes, greases and rosin precipitates from soiled surfaces. |
