Cleaning
The company’s new Tergo Metal Cleaning Fluid is a double-duty cleaner, easily degreasing metal parts and defluxing circuit boards. The fluid is designed to replace hydrogen degreasers and other old-style solvents. MicroCare Medical claim it is one of the strongest vapour degreasing fluids on the market and that it is also compatible with most materials of construction such as metals ceramics, plastics and elastomers.
The formula is designed to be used in the aerospace, automotive, medical, extraction and industrial sectors.
The fluid’s degreasing properties are made possible due to the non-flammable chemistry, engineered to enhance degreasing applications. MicroCare Medical has also stated that the fluid does not require chemical stabilisers or scavengers to prevent it from breaking down in the presence of water or white metals.
Jay Tourigny, senior vice president for MicroCare said: “Medical devices are manufactured in a controlled environment subject to stringent regulations and validation safeguards. The new Tergo fluid enables fast, thorough and consistent cleaning of intricate designs in that controlled environment without the bio burden problems and complexities associated with water cleaning. It’s a win-win, for everybody.”
