Non-surfactant solubilizing agent

A cleaner/degreaser composition comprising:

• a. a solvent;
• selected from the group consisting of 1-phenoxy-2-propanol, 2-phenoxyethanol, (2-(2-butoxymethylethoxy)methylethoxy)-propanol, 1-(2-butoxy-1-methylethoxy)-2-propanol, 1-butoxy-2-propanol, benzyl alcohol and mixtures thereof;
• b. a solubilizing agent which is 1-pipendine
• R1 is a nitrogen containing heterocycyl or a nitrogen containing hetroaryl.

A method of forming a cleaner/degreaser composition comprising:

• a. providing a solvent selected from the group consisting of 1-phenoxy-2-propanol, 2-phenoxyethanol, (2-(2-butoxymethylethoxy)methylethoxy)-propanol, 1-(2-butoxy-1-methylethoxy)-2-propanol, 1-butoxy-2-propanol, benzyl alcohol and mixtures thereof at least partially immiscible in water;
• b. providing a solubilizing agent which is 5-aminopentanol;
• and
• c. combining the solvent and solubilizing agent with water forming a stable single phase solution.
