3M™ Novec™ 72DE Engineered Fluid
Introduction
3M" Novee™ 72DE Engineered Fluid is a blend of methyl nonafluorabuty! ether (C\F,OCH), ethyl
nonaéluorobutyl ether (C.F OC.HL), and trans-1.2-dichloroethylene (t-DCE). In this mixture of solvents the
‘DCE forms azeotropes with each ofthe hydoiluoroether components. The blend has been analyzed during
«evaporation and extended use ina vapor degreaser and found to have a consistent composition that is safe
and effective for medium- to heavy-duty degreasing applications.
Nove 72DE fluid is ideal fora wide range of cleaning applications. Ii intended to replace ozone depleting
and chlorinated solvents as well as other solvent systems that do not have as favorable health, safety, oF
environmental properties. This Novee product has zero ozone depletion potential and other favorable
environmental properties (see Table 2). 3M Industrial Hygiene monitoring indicates there isa large margin
of safety between the exposure guidelines that have been established for each ofthe components and
‘exposures anticipated from intended end-use applications.
‘The high solvency ane! low surface tension, nonflammability an stability of Novec 72DE fd make it ideal
‘or immersion and vapor degreasing applications, These properties also make the solvent ideal for certain,
‘coating and lubricant deposition applications where increased solvency is desied.
Applications
+ Cleaning, rinsing and drying agent
Cleaning of els, greases, wanes
+ Specialty solvent applications
