Hand or bath cleaning solvents are used in many industries to remove dirt, oil, grease, or other contaminants from machined and fabricated metal, plastic and composite surfaces. Due considerationmust be given to the effects on users and the environment. Cleaning solvents must be highly refined and leave no residues on drying. They have to be very effective in removal of oils and soils without causing damage or corrosion of the parts or components being cleaned.
Pre-used parts or assemblies from the transportation, aerospace or manufacturing equipment sectors are often very heavily contaminated when removed from service but must be free of all contaminants before handling to disassemble prior to refurbishing and rebuilding. Much of this work will be manual and the considerations for the safety of operators is paramount.
Growing concerns regarding environmental and health hazards of the commonly used chlorinated solvents for industrial degreasing and cleaning has led to the formulation by of the Clarea® range of industrial cleaning solvents by EnviroTech Europe.
An environmentally safe range of hand and bath solvent cleaners
Clarea® industrial solvent cleaners are compatible with all metals, composites and most plastics used to remove dirt, oil, grease, or other contaminants from surfaces without causing harm or leavingresidue. They are used as immersion cleaners for component cleaning in manufacturing andengineering industries and as wipe cleaners for large surface areas prior to painting or powder coating.
Clarea® cleaning solvents are aliphatic hydrocarbon-based degreasing solvents with specified flash points. They are non-carcinogenic, low odour, fast drying and cause no ozone depletion. They leave minimal residues on drying surfaces and contain no halogens such as chlorine or fluorine.
Clarea® HC40 is a degreasing solvent with a flash point of 40°C. It is suitable for ultrasonic and dip systems and can be used with brush or in hand-wipe processes.
Clarea® HC62 is a degreasing solvent with a flash point over 60°C. It is suitable for hand wipe applications when used externally.
