Hi,
I found a bottle of Spray bandage,
containing :

- Acrylic polymer 34,5g
- Ethyl acetate 34,49g
- Dimethylether 31g
- Nitrofural 0,01g

Can I extract the ethyl acetate and the dimethylether by distillation ?

Yes. He can.

However he should understand that DME has B.P. -23.7 Deg C.
He will need super efficient low temperature cooling system to capture that. In comparison, Ethyl acetate is not a problem. (B.P. 77 Deg. C)

Nitrofuran and Acrylic Polymers are high boilers, will remain in the flask.
