A true azeotrope, Novec fluid HFE-71DE has constant liquid and vapor composition at its boiling point. It is intended to replace ozone-depleting materials chlorinated and brominated solvents in medium-duty cleaning and degreasing applications.
Application Guide
Listed below are key applications for HFE-71DE. Documents specific to the application are listed to the right.
Cleaning Fluids
Novec fluid HFE-71DE is an excellent cleaning, rinsing and drying agent. Its increased solvency, low surface tension, nonflammability and constant composition during boiling make it ideal for immersion and vapor degreasing, and for medium-duty cleaning of soils such as oils, greases and waxes.
What's more, HFE-71DE fluid is low in toxicity, non-ozone-depleting, has a low global warming potential, and is listed as "acceptable without restrictions" under the U.S. EPA's Significant New Alternatives Policy (SNAP) program.
