Tergo™
Tergo™ Cleaning Fluids are proprietary formulations unique to MicroCare.
They effectively remove fluxes, lubricants, dust, metal particulate, inks, fingerprints, waxes or other contaminant from electronics and other manufactured parts to prior processing or assembly.
Utilizing these cleaning fluids in a vapor degreaser is a fast and economical process, and one that can be automated into standard production lines. Tergo™ fluids are low in viscosity and surface tension, which allows them to permeate into tight spaces and blind holes. They flush out the soils and leave parts clean, dry and residue-free. They also offer high solvency (“Kb Value”) which allows them to rigorously clean the surface and displace stubborn soils without damaging substrates or flash rusting in high-carbon-content steel applications.
Tergo™ high-boiling fluids are also ideal for debinding MIM, PIM, CIM and 3D printed parts. They selectively removing the correct amount of binder prior to parts sintering, enabling shorter times in sintering ovens and higher throughput.
They make ideal replacements for trichloroethylene (TCE), n-propyl bromide (nPB), benzene, Perchloroethylene (Perc) and methylene chloride which are under environmental scrutiny.
Tergo™ cleaning fluids are environmentally sustainable. They have a GWP (Global Warming Potential) of less than 10 and a zero ODP (Ozone Depleting Potential). They are not classified as a HAP (Hazardous Air Pollutant) and are RoHS, REACH, F-Gas, SNAP and WEEE compliant. They are also nonflammable for facility and worker safety.
