Trial Number 299

Trial Purpose:

Laboratory evaluations of alternative cleaning products

Date Run:

12/11/2003

Experiment Procedure:

Basic cleaning performance testing was conducted using ASTM G122 as the bases for cleaning. 

One product was used at full strength. Three preweighed coupons were coated with Ink - Cerdec Magenta (119-64-2, 65997-18-4, 1345-24-0, 20067-12-3) and allowed to dry for a half an hour and reweighed. Three coupons were cleaned in each solution for 5 minutes using stir-bar-agitation, rinsed in a tap water bath for 15 seconds at 120 F and dried using air blow off for 30 seconds at 68 F. Coupons were allowed to dry for a half an hour and then reweighed a final time. Efficiencies were calculated.

Success Rating:

Preliminary compatibility tests on substrate coupons encouraging for at least one cleaning chemistry. More in-depth laboratory testing necessary.

Conclusion:

The product is effective at an efficiency rate of over 99%
