Overview
Novec™ 72DA Engineered Fluid is a non-flammable and low toxicity solvent, ideal for replacing chlorinated solvents such as Trichloroethylene (TCE) and for n-propyl bromide (nPB). Novec™ 72DA mainly serves as a vapor degreasing solvent, but can also be used in manual cleaning for touch-up and re-work at soldering benches.
