Looking for an NPB Bromide Replacement?

/in /by

Ecolink 2A few months ago, The New York Times published a report damning the use of n-PB, also known as n-Propyl Bromide, which is a chemical compound that is used for many reasons, but as it pertains to this blog, one such use involves the cleaning and degreasing of metals, parts, and materials. The publication also called out OSHA – the Occupational Safety and Health Administration – for its ineffectiveness and inability to prevent or even severely limit the use of this chemical compound by industrial companies for everyday operations. The reason The New York Times felt it pertinent to publish this informative piece is because of the drastic rise in health related issues that are directly linked to the use of NPB Bromide. Some of the more serious health risks when being exposed to NPB Bromide include nerve damage, infertility, and cancer.

Finding a Suitable AK225 Replacement

/in /by

Ak225Though AK-225, also known as Asahiklin, has been a popular, and for the most part effective cleaning solvent for parts, metals, and materials for industrial companies that need to clean and degrease products, studies have proven that when the chemical agent is released into the air, it damages the Ozone Layer. These studies contradict a lot of the information that can be found online that sheds positive light on AK225. However, the fact remains that enough evidence points toward the negative effects of using AK225, so much so that Asahiklin will be banned from production and import in the United States, effective January 1st, 2015.

For industrial businesses that have come to rely on AK-225, the need to find a suitable replacement for a parts cleaning solvent that can clean and degrease the way AK225 could becomes a major priority. A solid AK225 alternative would be FluoSolv CX, which is a non-ozone depleting solvent alternative for AK225. The following is a list of reasons why industrial businesses that are still using AK225 can find solace in switching to FluoSolv CX.

  • The acceptable exposure limit for FluoSolv CX is more than double the figure of AK225
  • FluoSolv CX is a much faster drying solvent, which makes the chemical agent more ideal for vapor degreasing and cold cleaning applications for aerosol.
  • The makeup of both AK225 and FluoSolv CX are quite analogous, therefore, both cleaning agents have similar materials compatibility with all metals and nonmetals, including ceramics, and polymers.
  • AK225 is commonly used for the precision cleaning of composite assemblies in aerospace, complex geometry metal parts, as well as electronic and medical devices because of its high density and low viscosity. FluoSolv CX has similar thermal and physical properties that make it an excellent AK225 alternative and ideal choice for precision cleaning in the just mentioned industries.
  • Since no equipment modifications or change is required to the operations of industrial companies currently using AK-225, these companies can make a seamless transition to the environmentally safe and cost effective FluoSolv CX solvent.

/in /by

Because of the strong and desired move toward finding green alternative industrial degreasers that are safer for people to use and for the environment that is eventually exposed to the chemicals, many industrial businesses have already made the move to find a non toxic solutions for their industrial cleaning needs. However, some industrial companies have refrained from making the switch to such degreasers due to the concern that the cleaning solution is not effective for jobs that require cleaning with industrial strength. Many people believe that industrial organizations that stubbornly refuse to transition to eco friendly, green alternative degreasers and cleaners do so because they simply do not care about the environment, and are willing to take the risk of putting their workers in harms way. This is not the case.

Those who are quick to point the finger must understand how critical it is for an industrial business to have an efficient and reliable cleaning component. To maintain the integrity of all manufactured items, industrial companies must have a degreaser that will effectively rid parts, materials, and metals of dirt, grime, grease, oil, rust, sticky substances, or any other potentially detrimental particles that can cause problems when those parts and materials are put into use. If an industrial organization’s parts, metals, and materials are not cleaned properly or efficiently, an entire operation could be devastated, merely because a single part was not thoroughly cleaned. This is why most companies find themselves constantly balancing safety with effectiveness and this poses a difficult problem for business tasked with cleaning parts for assembly.

All parties involved can rest easy, because Ecolink – a company that has been providing industrial strength, eco friendly and green alternative cleaning solvents to industrial businesses for years – has the research and test results that prove non toxic degreasers can clean with industrial strength. If you are a decision maker or executive at a business that uses and needs industrial strength cleaning solutions and have not made the switch to an eco friendly alternative, please contact Ecolink right away, and a representative will happily provide detailed information on all their industrial strength degreasers and cleaning solutions with environmentally preferred manufacturing.

 

Industrial Distributors now have Custom Cleaning Solutions for their Clients

/in /by

How many times has a sale representative been out visiting a current or potential client and run into the obstacle of the product not being specific enough to satisfy the clients needs?  It likely happens every single day.  Today’s modern businesses are all about change, adaptability, and getting the exact match to meet their needs to save all involved, time, energy and money. This is true in every industry and as it pertains to needing custom cleaning solutions for industrial distributors, military mechanical operations are far different from industrial business needs. As a matter of fact, the cleaning needs of both parties could not be more different as the type of cleaning solutions and the quantity for each custom cleaning greatly vary. The point is the ability of a cleaning solutions provider to customize their operations is highly important. Otherwise, a custom cleaning solutions provider runs the risk of marginalizing their operations because their business can only cater to a specific type of business or industry. Most industrial distributors will need frequent cleaning for a multitude of machinery, parts, and materials, which subsequently means excellent profit margins for a custom cleaning business. To miss out on this type of financial opportunity could spell doom for cleaning businesses that are unwilling or unable to customize or tailor their services.

An Ecolink representative is ready to assist you, as well as any industrial distributor looking for custom cleaning solutions.
