Vertrel® Specialty Fluids | | DuPont Vertrel® specialty fluids are a family of hydrofluorocarbon based solvents with "zero" ozone depletion and low global warming potential, ideal for cleaning, rinsing, drying, and carrier-fluid applications. Wherever excellent performance, demanding specifications, and a high degree of environmental acceptability are required, Vertrel® specialty fluids are the ideal replacements for ozone-depleting and high global warming solvents such as CFC-1l3, l,l,l-trichloroethane, HCFC-l4lb, HCFC-l23, HCFC-225, and perfluorocarbons. |  | Vertrel® specialty fluids are high purity solvents that deliver superior performance. Unique physical properties include low viscosity, low surface tension and high liquid density for effective wetting and soil removal, and low heat of vaporization and moderate boiling points for low energy consumption and high work throughput. These properties combined with non-flammability, chemical and thermal stability, low toxicity, and ease of recovery by distillation, make Vertrel® solvents ideal for a broad range of applications. » Vertrel® Formulations and Applications » Vertrel® Cleaning and Drying Technology » Key Properties and Features of Vertrel® Material Compatibility Vertrel@ azeotropes and blends are highly compatible with a broad range of materials, metals, plastics, and elastomers. The following list gives a non-exhaustive overview of the compatibility for plastics and elastomers. | Plastics | | Polyethylene (PE,HDPE) | Acetal | | Polypropylene (PP) | ABS* | | Polystyrene (PS)* | PVC,CPVC | | Polyphenylene oxide (PPO)* | PTFE, Teflon | | Polyetherketone (PEK) | ETFE | | Polyaryletherketone (PEEK) | Ionomer | | Polyester (PET, PBT) | Phenolic | | Polyimide (PI, PEl, PAl) | Epoxy | | Polyphenylene Sulfide (PPS) | LCP | | Polysulfone (PSO) | | Polyarlysulfone (PAS) |
