Opteon™ SF79 Specialty Fluid

An Environmentally Sound Cleaning Fluid Replacement

Opteon™ SF79 specialty cleaning fluid is a high-performance fluid designed to offer superior cleaning power, higher efficiency, and safety in an environmentally sustainable, low global warming potential (GWP).

It is an ideal candidate for replacing solvents like n-propyl bromide (nPB), perchloroethylene (Perc), trichloroethylene (TCE) and aqueous-based cleaning products in industrial cleaning applications.

Opteon™ SF79 is used for:

  • Vapor degreasing
  • Precision cleaning of printed circuit boards (PCBs)
  • Cold cleaning
  • Removal of greases and oils
  • Silicone cleaning

Features and Benefits

The high relative evaporation rate of Opteon™ SF79 delivers fast drying cycles, allowing immediate use of cleaned parts for further processing. Other properties that make the specialty fluid the best choice for industrial cleaning applications include:

  • Superior cleaning performance, with a high Kb value of 103
  • Excellent environmental profile with a low GWP
  • Nonflammable
  • Low surface tension for the ability to penetrate and clean tight areas
  • High soil loading capacity to minimize equipment downtime
  • No surfactants needed
