Features of e-Clean 21EA

e-Clean 21EA is a bromine-based cleaning agent developed as a technical substitute for chlorinated solvents. Its technical details include:

• Cleaning Efficiency: Specifically engineered to remove water-soluble flux and urethane resin.
• Physical Properties: Features a low surface tension of 25.8 mN/m and a viscosity of 0.495 (at 25°C), allowing the solvent to effectively penetrate microscopic gaps or complex component geometries.
• Safety Profile: The product has no flash point and is nonflammable, ensuring simplified management and enhanced safety within factory facilities.
• Environmental Management: Maintains a low Ozone Depletion Potential (ODP) of 0.013 and a Global Warming Potential (GWP) of 0.0001. It supports the acquisition and maintenance of ISO 14000 standards when used in conjunction with recycling equipment.
