The aerospace industry has high requirements when it comes to the cleanliness of parts. Chlorinated solvents are a proven and well-researched solution for clean parts with low surface tension – even with a wide range of contaminants. However, many manufactures in the last years have been evaluating alternatives to their established processes. So did Leonardo Helicopters, one of the world’s leading helicopter manufacturers, at their site in Yeo- vil (UK). They decided for DOWPERTM* MC Perchloroethylene and COMPLEASETM, the Chemical Leasing model from SAFECHEM.
