Universal Carrier Fluid II

Product Information

Universal Carrier Fluid II provides excellent fluid dilution for thin film surface coating consistency

Applications:

• Formulated specifically for use with medical grade silicone lubricants for medical device assembly
• Deliver Dow Corning™ 360 Medical Fluids (polydimethylsiloxane, or PDMS) or similar fluids
• Use as as a cleaner for removing PDMS from parts, tubes and machinery during maintenance and service
• Ideal for high-volume coating of medical devices
• Dip, spray, brush or wipe onto surfaces

Features:

• High-solvency
• Provides a highly-consistent surface coating regardless of surface geometry
• Extraordinarily low surface tension and viscosity, enhances the “wetting” of all surfaces and shapes
• Nonflammable

MicroCare Universal Carrier Fluid II (UCF2) is a custom formulated, nonflammable, carrier fluid formulated specifically for deposition use with Dow Corning™ 360 Medical Fluids (polydimethylsiloxane-PDMS) or similar
medical grade silicone lubricant fluids.   

MicroCare Universal Carrier Fluid II consists of a proprietary solvent blend that provides superior carrying capacity (dilution) of PDMS in weight concentrations up to 10% without fall-out. This capability exceeds the normal manufacturer recommended dilution range of 0.1 - 5%, and provides superior carrier performance and safety for high volume manufacturing applications.

As an added benefit, the unique properties of this carrier also make it well suited for cleaning and removing PDMS from articles made from most commonly used materials of construction.

MicroCare Universal Carrier Fluid II is compatible with all grades of stainless steel, brass, carbon steel and most nonferrous metals. It is also compatible with most plastics including nylon, HDPE, LDPE, PPE and PTFE.  Elastomer compatibility is also good.

MicroCare Universal Carrier Fluid II has substantially lower Global Warming Potential (GWP) than CFCs, PFCs and HFCs. All components of this product are listed on the US EPA TSCA inventory, and are also listed as approved by the US EPA Significant New Alternatives Program (SNAP).
