N-PROPYL BROMIDE BASED SOLVENT COMPOSITIONS AND METHODS FOR CLEANING ARTICLES

摘要

n-Propyl bromide based solvent compositions and methods for cleaning articles using said solvent compositions are provided. Such solvent composition comprise about 50 weight percent to 99 weight percent of n-propyl bromide, about 0.5 weight percent to 50 weight percent of alcohol, and at least 0.005 weight percent of a surfactant. Such solvent compositions remove at least one of water or water soluble contaminants. The solvent compositions and methods of the present invention are useful as a degreaser and/or cleaner in both for cold cleaning and hot rinsing systems for cleaning articles.
