Isopropyl Alcohol (IPA) Alternatives
Isopropyl alcohol (CAS #67-63-0), also referred to as IPA, isopropanol, and 2-propanol, is going to be in short supply for the coming weeks or months because of the COVID-19 (Novel Coronavirus) pandemic. That may cause supply problems for many companies using IPA for flux removal, stencil cleaning, and industrial degreasing. Techspray offers alternatives to IPA that are as effective if not more so, and in many cases nonflammable with lower environmental impact.
Techspray offers alternatives to isopropyl alcohol for:
- Electronic printed circuit board (PCB) assembly
- Removal of solder paste or adhesive from SMT stencils
- Maintenance cleaning of SMT reflow ovens
- Flux removal from wave soldering fingers, selective soldering nozzles, pallets
