Trial Purpose:
Laboratory evaluations of alternative cleaning products
Date Run:
10/11/2002Experiment Procedure:
Basic cleaning performance testing was conducted using ASTM G122 as the bases for cleaning.
Degassing: Degassing the solution by keeping solutions in ultrasonic crest for 5 min at 120 F.
Cleaning: Ultrasonic for 5 min. at 120 F.
Rinsing: 1/2 min. manual with water at 120 F.
Drying: 1 min with heat gun @ 500F
Contaminant: Aroset PS 8078, Ashlan Chemical (Lot# 071901). Very thick adhesive
CAS#'s 141-78-6 Ethyl Acetate, 142-82-5 Heptane, 67-63-0 Isopropanol
Success Rating:
Preliminary compatibility tests on substrate coupons encouraging for at least one cleaning chemistry. More in-depth laboratory testing necessary.
