Effective Alternatives to Traditional Spray and Immersion Cleaning Processes
Many advanced assemblies require high volume and cost-effective selective cleaning during various stages of assembly or rework operations. Due to component compatibility problems and drying challenges, partially assembled devices can't be immersed in or sprayed with aqueous cleaners or solvents. Advanced carbon dioxide composite sprays entrained in CDA(g) cleaning have shown to be an effective alternative to traditional spray and immersion cleaning processes.
Keeping Vapor Degreasing Safe
Vapor degreaser safety practices should always be of the highest importance due to the harmful affects its solvents can have on workers. Learn some simple procedures that your company can do in order to ensure worker safety by minimizing their exposure to solvents and increasing solvent awareness, while at the same time improving the efficiency of a vapor degreaser.
Methyl Soyate: The Solution to Increased Safety and Performance
The odds of your solvents supplier using soy in their formulations are probably pretty slim. If they don't, it may be worth comparing the price and performance of their product to a similar product made from soy.
Soda Blast Cleaning: Growing Into a Big Industry
Soda blast is a great alternative media for blast cleaning as it breaks up on contact with the surface being blasted, and does not work deeper than the substrate surface itself.
The Plastic Particle and the Slicing Blade
How a 30 micron plastic deionizer bead caused a potential catastrophe at a respected slicing/dicing blade manufacturer in Japan.
Vapor Degreasing with Binary Azeotropes
Cleaning test data demonstrates that some soils that can be cleaned by n-propyl bromide (about which there are safety, health and environmental [SHE] concerns) can also be cleaned by some binary azeotropes in which both components are VOC exempt in the U.S.
