Introduction to SAFECHEM

Who is SAFECHEM An introduction to SAFECHEM • Established in 1992 • Locations – Duesseldorf (Germany) and Shanghai (China) • Inventor and developer of modified alcohols and stabilisers • Responsible for the sustainable and innovative use of chemicals Modified alcohols: The next generation of industrial parts cleaning Non / water insoluble nonpolar polar / water insoluble Water polar watersoluble soluble / /polar Oil & HC Solvents Water Modified alcohols: The next generation of industrial parts cleaning Non polar / water insoluble Water soluble / polar Hydrocarbons Water Halogenated solvents (DOWPER™*/MECTHENE™*/NEU-TRI™*) Modified alcohol (DOWCLENE™* 1601) Modified alcohol (DUALENE™ 1601 S) Modified alcohol (DOWCLENE™ 1611) Modified alcohol (DOWCLENE™* 1621) Modified alcohol/Hydrocarbon in a hybrid process (DOWCLENE™* 1601 or 1621/Water) Salts Emulsions Oil Waxes Emulsion residues EP additives Petroleum Fats Resins AW additive Corrosion Protection Inhibitor Ester Modified alcohols: The next generation of industrial parts cleaning Properties and advantages of modified alcohols HO - -O- - Cn H2n - -R n Non Polar contaminant Polar contaminant Modified alcohols: The next generation of industrial parts cleaning HO - Water Properties and advantages of modified alcohols -O- - Cn H2n - - Rsmall alcohols n Learn more about HSPs at Non Polar contaminant Polar contaminant hydrocarbons Modified alcohols: The next generation of industrial parts cleaning DOWCLENE™* 1601 Boiling point / °C (°F) 170-175 (338-347) Trichloroethylene Aqueous cleaning 87 (189) 100 (212) Heat of vaporization/ J/g 280 240 2260 Flash point / °C (°F) 63 (145) 410 (770) none Working condition Vacuum, vapor at ca. 100°C (212) Normal pressure, vapor at 87°C (189) Elevated temp. <100°C (<212) Modified alcohols: The next generation of industrial parts cleaning Thorough understanding of the plant is important for using the solvent Modified alcohols: The next generation of industrial parts cleaning Thorough understanding of the plant is important for using the solvent Amounts per 220 lb oil removed solvent 1642 lb solvent 353 lb solvent 33 lb OPEN MACHINE CLOSED MACHINE air emissions 1146 lb waste 514 lb air emissions 22 lb waste 331 lb CLOSED MACHINE air emissions 2 lb & CPS waste 7 lb Modified alcohols: The next generation of industrial parts cleaning Polar Contaminations AQ Cleaning Solvent Cleaning Non-Polar Contaminations AQ Cleaning Solvent Cleaning Modified alcohols: The next generation of industrial parts cleaning MAXISTAB™ S-Series Mandatory monitoring with MAXICHECK™ test kits reveals potential challenging situations and provides recommendation on addition of stabilizer if required. Continue solvent monitoring and stabilization (if required) to safeguard your equipment and extend solvent lifespan. Modified alcohols: The next generation of industrial parts cleaning SAFECHEM Service Elements for solvent monitoring CHEMAWARE™ Oil Compatibility Test • The Oil Compatibility Test in the CHEMAWARE™ laboratories can be used to test new operating supplies before their use, or for finding the causes of difficulties with existing oils. • Used oil from the tooling machine is preferred, but even fresh oil or oil from the residue of the cleaning machine can be analysed. Modified alcohols: The next generation of industrial parts cleaning SAFECHEM Service Elements for solvent monitoring CHEMAWARE™ Solvent Analysis • The Solvent Analyses in the CHEMAWARE™ laboratories in provide detailed information on the condition of the solvent. The results can also explain increased stabiliser consumption and provide assistance, for example. • Recommended at least every six months.
