D-5653 is an environmentally sensible hydrochlorofluorocarbon (HCFC), designed to replace CFCs, PFCS and other HCFCS in a variety of applications. It's selective solvency and physical properties makes D-5653 ideal for precision cleaning, drying and defluxing of high sensitivity parts. D-5653 is thermally stable, nonflammable and has a substantially lower global warming potential (GWP) than PFC's and HFC's. D-5653 has an extremely low ozone depletion potential, (ODP of D-5653 = 0.03 vs. HCFC 141b = 0.11).
Application:
D-5653 is an excellent CFC replacement for a variety of cleaning processes such as instruments, electrical connectors and switches, APU kits, bearings and oxygen system equipment (for oxygen systems on military equipment see Sur Prep 225G). We always recommend pretesting D-5653 on sensitive plastics, acrylics and polystyrenes and on elastomers, like urethane or silicone rubber, before production uses.
Features:
D-5653 is nonflammable, nonexplosive and non-injurious to metal, paint and varnished surfaces, as well as most plastics and elastomers. D-5653 has nearly identical characteristics as CFC-113; excellent permeability due to it's low surface tension and a short drying time. D-5653 will solubilize may of the fluorinated and perfluorinated greases like Krytox and Braycote 806.
