I saw your first message but didn’t reply as I thought 100′s of
others would

I’m sure if you call your local Exxon, Shell or Phillips office
and ask for a solvents charts with evaporation rates they will
oblidge. The evap. rates are relative to Butyl Acetate (=100) or
similar and they will give you empirical data to work with.

Shell (UK) have done a lot of work with an "Evaporometer" which
measures ER. I have lots of figures…. I’m a long way from
you……but if you don’t have any joy with the oil companies give
me another call.
