### 5/5 — Best effort yet at simplifying the myriad of factors involved with Green Solvent selections

*2020-06-25*

You can combine a variety of factors to see which solvents fit into categories. For example you can look for solvents that are Lewis acids and flammable. There are a few suggestions that would make the app more user friendly but it is a great free effort!

### 2/5 — Useless

*2013-05-06*

This app does nothing except provide an arbitrary rating of different solvents and then refer you to other Internet tethered apps for real information. Just use Wikipedia.
