Promosolv Neo B1 is a PFAS-free, non-flammable degreasing solvent from Inventec Performance Chemicals, developed as a drop-in replacement for trichlorethylene, NPB and other solvents, offering reduced health, safety and environmental impact while maintaining equivalent degreasing power.
Promosolv Neo B1 Features
- PFAS-free formulation
- No global warming potential (GWP <1) and no ozone depletion potential (ODP)
- Removes a wide range of contaminants, including oils, greases, waxes and particles
- Very low surface tension (17 dynes/cm) for penetrating tight spaces
- Non-flammable, with no flash point
- Azeotropic formulation
- Qualified for aerospace industry use under Boeing BAC 5750 / ASTM D 1353
- Drop-in replacement for 3M Novec 71DE, 72DE, 73DE and 8200
Promosolv Neo B1 supports deep cleaning and rinsing of parts with complex geometry, with short cleaning, rinsing and drying times. It is thermally and chemically stable, non-toxic, low in corrosive impact, and carries Inventec’s Greenway product designation (GW-Score 24).
Applications
- Removal of oils and greases, excluding water-based lubricants
- Wax removal
- Particle removal
- Selective removal of varnishes, adhesives, inks and paints
- Vapor phase cleaning processes
- Aerospace and electronic component cleaning
Used Promosolv Neo B1 can be recovered and recycled through Inventec’s Ecoprogram service, supporting a long bath-life and continuous recycling capability during use.
