Introduction

FluoSolv® NPX is a proprietary blend of nonflammable fluorinated solvents (HFEs, HFCs etc.), trans-1,2-dichloroethylene (t-DCE). FluoSolv® NPX offers a NON-PFAS solution to precision degreasing of heavy duty grease and lubricants and also cold cleaning. The isopropanol in FluoSolv® NPX fluid provides enhanced removal of ionic contaminants.

FluoSolv® NPX is a drop-in replacement for many 3M Chemistries.

FluoSolv® NPX solvent leverages the chemical solvency of the fluid as well as its physical properties such as high density, low surface tension and low viscosity for optimal performance. Efficient cleaning requires the solvent to flow extremely close to the surface of the part to dissolve the contaminant or physically lift insoluble particulate contaminants away from the surface to be cleaned.

User Benefits

NuGenTec’s FluoSolv® NPX is ideally balanced to deliver performance, worker safety and desirable environmental properties while offering a solution that is better for the environment than traditional chemistries.

• Non-PFAS Formulation
• Drop-in replacement for 3M products
• Low global warming potential (GWP)
• Low toxicity; high allowable exposure limit (AEL);
• Non-Flammable; Non-Hazardous
• Chemically stable; will not go acid

Material Compatibility

FluoSolv® NPX is compatible with all metals, ceramic and other non-conducting materials. Most elastomeric materials are compatible except fluoroelastomers such as Viton & Kalrez which tend to swell. It is recommended that all materials be tested prior to use.

**Viton & Kalrez are fluoroelastomers that tend to swell when exposed to fluorinated fluids; dimensional changes are reversible
*Acrylics & Polycarbonates in stressed conditions are more susceptible to solvent attack at elevated temperatures.

Physical Properties

Worker Safety

Data from acute toxicity studies of various ingredients has demonstrated that FluoSolv® NPX blend has low toxicity. It has a calculated AEL (Acceptable Exposure Limit) of 200 ppm based on its individual components. None of the ingredients in FluoSolv® NPX have any chronic or acute toxicity associated with them which makes it a worker friendly solvent.

Please refer to the SDS for information on detailed exposure limits and toxicity-related data.

NuGenTec’s FluoSolv® NPX exhibits no closed cup or open cup flash point and is not classified as a flammable liquid per established definitions by NFPA or DOT, however being volatile, vapors may become flammable in air. Flash point data and vapor flammability limits in air are shown in Table 3 below .
