Solvents can be classified into three categories according to their polarity namely, polar protic, dipolar aprotic and non-polar. Most of the common solvents fall under one of following chemical classes Aliphatic hydrocarbons, aromatic hydrocarbons, alcohols, phenols, ethers, aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids, esters, halogen-substituted hydrocarbons, amines, nitriles, nitro-derivatives, amides and sulfur-containing solvents (Marcus, 1998). In certain cases a mixture of two or more solvents would perform better than a single solvent.

Sulphuric Acid Derivatives.—In the aliphatic series we considered the hydroxyl derivatives immediately following the halogen derivatives because in that series the hydroxyl compounds are directly and eeisily prepared from the halogen substitution products by the action of silver hydroxide, AgOH, or sodium hydroxide, NaOH. In the benzene series the halogen derivatives are followed by the sulphuric acid derivatives because, in the first place, the halogen derivatives are not converted into hydroxyl compounds by treatment with silver hydroxide, and in the second place, because the sulphuric acid derivatives of the benzene hydrocarbons are easily formed directly from the hydrocarbons by action of sulphuric acid, which was not the case in the aliphatic series and because they are exceedingly important as they are readily transformed into other classes of compounds, e.g, hydroxyl compounds, phenols. 

HDPE is not soluble in any known solvent at room temperature, although several solvents (ie, xylenes) have a swelling effect. However, certain binary solution mixtures including CS2 dissolve HDPE at as low as 30-40°C. Above 80°C HDPE dissolves in many aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons and their halogen-substituted derivatives. Solvents most frequently used include xylenes, tetralin, decalin, o-dichlorobenzene, 1,2,4-trichlorobenzene, and 1,2,4-trimethylbenzene. These solvents are employed for the determination of molecular weights from solution-viscosity data or by gpc. 

The Saturated Aliphatic Hydrocarbons.—For the differentiation between the saturated aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons, the reactions typical of the benzene nucleus are applied. The paraffin hydrocarbons are inert towards many of the reagents to which the members of the aromatic series respond the most important reaction of the paraffins is substitution by halogens and this reaction is not suitable for qualitative application. The paraffin hydrocarbons usually met are the various fractions from petroleum and in dealing with these products special provision must be made for reaction due to the presence of not inconsiderable quantities of unsaturated products.
