Eco-Friendly Electronics Cleaning Substitute
Acetone is a colorless and hazardous solvent that offers fast evaporation and effective removal of residues for cleaning electronics components. However, it is highly flammable and has the potential to damage components. Responding to the increasing importance of sustainability initiatives in innovation, the electronics industry has begun to adopt more eco-friendly practices, including cleaning alternatives.
Looking for assistance to determine the right eco-friendly cleaner for electronics? Contact AcraStrip, and one of our knowledgeable representatives will be happy to help.
Biodegradable & Effective Cleaner for Electronic Components & Devices
AcraStrip offers a chemical alternative for cleaning electronics without damaging critical electrical components. Precision electronics undergo thorough cleaning to provide optimal performance in their specific applications, which also improves product quality. Using bio-based solvents can effectively remove residues, oils, and other contaminants from these components without hazardous ingredients, like those found in acetone/hazardous solvents, to maintain the integrity of sensitive electronic parts and ensure a safer working environment.
Why Replace Acetone/Solvents in Your Electronics Cleaning Applications
Critical electronics components are made with delicate or sensitive materials that may be compromised by acetone cleaning. Acetone is a traditional solvent with hazardous ingredients, which may damage the integrity of the part. This solvent comes with health and safety risks, rated 3 for severity in flammability and contact, and rated 2 for moderate health concerns. Using acetone requires protective equipment, as it can have the following effects on personnel:
- Respiratory tract irritation from vapors
- Eye irritant
- Severe irritation or dermatitis through prolonged skin contact
- Can cause coughing, dizziness, and headache when vapors are inhaled
- High concentrations may result in nervous system depression or unconsciousness
