Promosolv Neo B1 is a PFAS-free, non-flammable degreasing solvent from Inventec Performance Chemicals. It is a drop-in replacement for trichlorethylene, NPB and other solvents, with lower HSE impact and equal degreasing power.
Key Features of Promosolv Neo B1
- PFAS-free, GWP below 1
- Boiling point 48°C / 118°F
- Perfect for aerospace degreasing
What Can Promosolv Neo B1 Replace?
It is a drop-in replacement for 3M Novec 71DE, 72DE, 73DE and 8200. It also replaces trichlorethylene and NPB. As a result, you can switch without redesigning your vapor phase process.
What Does It Remove?
It removes oils, greases (excluding water-based lubricants), waxes and particles. In addition, it selectively removes varnishes, adhesives, inks and paints. Typical uses include aerospace and electronic component cleaning.
Reaches Tight Spaces
Very low surface tension lets the solvent penetrate tight spaces and complex geometries. Moreover, it is thermally and chemically stable, so it resists breakdown over repeated cycles. Its low corrosive impact also protects sensitive components.
Consistent Performance
Its azeotropic formulation keeps a consistent composition through repeated distillation. Consequently, cleaning performance stays predictable across the working life of the bath.
Is Promosolv Neo B1 Approved for Aerospace?
Yes. It holds aerospace qualification under Boeing BAC 5750 / ASTM D 1353.
Recycling and Sustainability
You can recover and recycle used product through Inventec’s Ecoprogram. It also carries the Greenway designation (GW-Score 24), with no ODP and a GWP below 1.
Why Choose Promosolv Neo B1?
It delivers the cleaning power of legacy solvents without PFAS. Therefore, it is a strong choice for manufacturers moving away from PFAS-based solvents.
