Tergo™ XCF1 PFAS FREE Cleaning Agent, Carrier Fluid & Particle Displacer

Tergo™ XCF1 PFAS FREE Cleaning Agent, Carrier Fluid & Particle Displacer

Tergo™ XCF1, part of the latest Tergo™ XCF range of PFAS FREE Solvents

Tergo™ XCF1 is a pure, monosolvent designed to clean a broad range of soils using either an open-top or vacuum vapor degreaser. It can also be used for displacing sub-micron particles in critical  applications and carrying coatings and lubricants.

This hydrochlorofluoroolefin is a nonflammable fluid that has excellent material compatibility across a wide spectrum of substrates. Its chemical properties also make it hostile to pathogens, and do not contribute to bioburden, which is critical in aerospace and medical applications.

Tergo™ XCF1 is hydrolytically stable and therefore does not require chemical stabilisers or boosters to prevent it from breaking down in the presence of excess water or mild acid-base activators.

While Tergo™ XCF1 was designed for efficient use in closed-loop vapor degreasing systems, it is also functional as a line flush fluid or for solvent extraction applications.

Tergo™ XCF1 is an ideal replacement for products such as 3M Novec™ HFE 71DE
