Typical Applications by Industry

Aerospace

Use AeroTron™-L vapor degreasing solvent for the removal of greases, oils, silicone, masking waxes, masking lacquers, NDT dye penetrants, drawing lubricants, coolant residues and adhesives. Also ultrasonic vapor degreasing for removal of metal fines, polishing abrasives and blasting media.

Electronics

AeroTron™-L easily removes flux and flux residues, polar and non-polar contamination, and cleans electrical assemblies and fingerprints.

Optics

Cleaning of potting and masking waxes and fingerprints.

Metal Fabrication & Coating

Cleaning prior to coating, welding, brazing, or adhesive bonding.
Use AeroTron™-L for vapor degreasing, ultrasonic cleaning and cold wipe cleaning processes to achieve near residue free surface cleanliness prior to plating, painting, physical vapor deposition (PVD) or robotic welding, vacuum brazing, or adhesive bonding of metal parts.
