AsahiKlin™ AE-3000 Series Fluorinated Solvents
Environmentally sensible fluorinated solvents designed to replace halogenated solvents.
Precision cleaning solvent that can be used in vapor degreasing equipment
AGC created the AsahiKlin™ AE-3000 precision cleaning solvent to replace halogenated solvents with unfavorable environmental properties. AE-3000 cleaning agents have no flash point, no ozone depletion potential (ODP), low global warming potential (LGWP) and low surface tension.
AE-3000 solvents are approved for use as:
- Precision cleaning solvent
- Defluxing agents for electronic circuitry
- Carrier solvents for silicone and fluorinated lubricants
- Moisture displacement fluids
They can also be used in most existing vapor degreasing equipment with little or no modification.
AGC Chemicals Americas also offers AMOLEA™ AT2, a next-generation fluorinated precision cleaning solvent. This solvent has excellent solvency with a wide variety of press oils, cutting oils, silicone oils , refrigerant oils, greases, asphalt pitches, and fluxes used in the electronics industry.
AMOLEA AT2 has no ozone depletion potential, has less global warming potential than our existing AsahiKlin AE-3000 series products, is non-flammable, and is energy efficient due to its low latent heat of vaporization. AMOLEA AT2 will be marketed as an alternative to 3M Novec products, Chemours Vertrel offerings, n-propyl bromide and trichloroethylene. View AMOLEA AT2 data sheet.
