Less expensive fluorinated solvent formulation for all precision cleaning applications

ProSolv is a new critical cleaning solvent that has been developed by EnviroTech Surface Technologies as a ‘drop-in’ cost-effective alternative, which is less expensive than current fluorocarbon formulations.

ProSolv offers future-proof cleaning systems giving long-term savings without compromising quality. Substitution is simple with no changes to equipment or control settings needed. Users of trichloroethylene, which is due to be phased out as a cleaning solvent in April 2016, only three months away, may be able to use ProSolv as a cost effective replacement in many applications.

ProSolv is friendly to the environment it has zero Ozone Depletion Potential (ODP) and a very low impact on global warming. In addition, it is a non-flammable stable azeotrope needing no testing for acid acceptance or stabilising additives, easy to use and maintain and safer for employees and the workplace.

ProSolv like many other fluorinated solvent azeotropes is extremely effective for precision cleaning in high-tech industries such as aerospace, aviation, electronics and medical due to the use of an additive trans 1,2-dichloroethylene.

This produces a powerful fluorinated cleaning solvent with a very low surfaces tension that cleans blind holes and the smallest gaps more effectively at a lower cost. With these wide range of properties ProSolv is particularly effective used with ultrasonics.

ProSolv can usually be used in existing degreasers or sprayed from an aerosol container. The fluorinated solvents are ideal for the cost-conscious user for precision cleaning and degreasing of electronics, metals and glass. ProSolv can be used to remove adhesives, fluxes, pastes, buffing compounds, greases, silicone oils, particulates, resins, waxes and other oils and soils. ProSolv is only one of a wide range of cleaning solvents and solutions produced by engineering cleaning specialists EnviroTech Surface Technologies.
