About FluoSolv® CAS
FluoSolv® CAS is a proprietary zero-VOC vapor-degreasing solvent engineered by NuGenTec for precision-cleaning applications requiring effective cleaning performance with reduced VOC emissions. Unlike many conventional vapor-degreasing solvents, FluoSolv® CAS contains no trans-1,2-dichloroethylene (t-DCE), alcohol, or hydrocarbons and has been certified by the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) as a Clean Air Solvent.
FluoSolv® CAS combines low surface tension, good solvency, nonflammability, chemical stability, and broad material compatibility for removal of particulates, fingerprints, light oils, greases, and other light manufacturing soils. Its zero-VOC status makes it particularly well suited for vapor-degreasing operations in California and other applications where VOC emissions and air-quality requirements are important process considerations.
