Pooling of thinner / solvent / diluent.

I think that in this case "centralizacion" is best translated as "pooling" rather than "centralization". It means that the solvent /thinner /diluent all gathers (collects) in one spot, most probably due to condensation. HTH.

If someone would care to help me explain this better, in Spanish, for the askers benefit I would appreciate it because, in this case, my ability to explain this thoroughly & properly, in Spanish, is not good enough.

agree Jane Lamb-Ruiz (X) : I had thought that too but couldn't find any references to it...have no idea of this area....dilutant or diluter not diluent...diluter collection

Thanks. Yes, "diluent" is not a particularly well-known or frequently used word, luckily, I've had some chemistry experience.
