TOPKLEAN MC 20A

Hydrocarbon oil & grease removal
Co-solvent process
Sustainable alternative to perchloroethylene & nPB

TOPKLEAN MC 20A

TOPKLEAN MC 20A is especially designed to remove hydrocarbon oils & greases from all metals and most plastics. It could also remove a small quantity of water-soluble oils and minerals but need to be evaluated & tested before. It brings a shiny effect on sensitive alloys & metals. It is used in co-solvent process to offer a fast & sustainable cleaning process in accordance with the latest and future environmental regulations with very high cleaning efficiency. It is the only solvent process which can reach even better cleaning efficiency levels (kb values) than nPB, perchloroethylene and other hazardous alternatives.

In a Co-solvent process, TOPKLEAN MC 20A is rinsed perfectly with Hydrofluoroethers (HFE) based rinsing fluids from 3M^TM Novec^TM or our own PROMOSOLV^TMrange. Thanks to the very low surface tension of HFE, the rinsing will penetrate into the very tight or difficult to reach spaces. It will dissolve any remaining contaminations, resulting in very low contamination levels. Besides, compared with a water based cleaning system, there is no risk of corrosion due to the absence of residual water left on the parts.

TOPKLEAN MC 20A together with the co-solvent process has been a game changer for over 15 years now and is qualified and used by several actors in the automotive, aerospace and micromechanics industry.
