Bio Solv for Composites Manufacturing Cleanup
Green Cleaner for Composites Manufacturing Cleanup
Keeping equipment, tools, rollers, molds and general surroundings in a composites manufacturing plant clean can be a tough job, particularly when you’re dealing with glue residues, resin, hardeners, polyesters, vinyl ester, and epoxy. It’s also critical that surfaces requiring paint or other coating are properly prepped to ensure proper coating integrity and longevity.
Until now, companies have had to rely on toxic and highly flammable petroleum based solvents, such as acetone, xylene, methyl ethyl ketone (MEK), toluene, and lacquer thinners, for cleanup and removal of paint, grease, oil, tar, glaze, varnish, and adhesives. These traditional solvents are expensive to store, handle and dispose of, and are harmful to the employees who use them.
Bio-Solv – A Green Solvent Replacement
For Composite Manufacturing, Bio-Solv is a powerful replacement solvent for acetone, xylene, methyl ethyl ketone (MEK), toluene, or other harmful solvents. All resin systems can be cleaned with Bio-Solv and with far superior results to traditional petroleum based solvents. With its low evaporation rate and ability to be recycled, you’ll use less Bio-Solv to get the job done. Testing shows you can get 10 times the usage from Bio-Solv than from petroleum based solvents.
Bio-Solv is used by Composite Manufacturing companies to:
- Clean rollers, tools, resin and chopper guns
- Clean lamination and hand tools
- Clean molds
- Remove uncured resin from guides, tools, machinery parts, flushing resin lines, etc.
- Flush and clean gel coats from tools & equipment
- Prep surfaces before bonding, painting, etc. (leave no residue)
- Reduces health and safety hazards for employees
