    Grease Removal – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)


    What is grease removal in industrial cleaning?

    Grease removal is the process of eliminating heavy lubricants, oils, and greases from metal and electronic components to prepare surfaces for further processing like soldering, coating, or assembly.

    Why is grease removal critical before soldering or coating?

    Grease residues can prevent proper adhesion, cause defects such as poor wetting or delamination, and lead to corrosion or electrical failures, impacting product reliability.

    What cleaning methods are effective for grease removal?

    Common methods include solvent degreasing, aqueous alkaline cleaning, ultrasonic agitation, and vapor degreasing, selected based on grease type and component sensitivity.

    Which solvents are recommended for grease removal?

    INVENTEC provides advanced degreasing solvents specifically formulated to dissolve tough greases while being safe for sensitive metals and electronics.

    Can aqueous cleaners remove grease effectively?

    Yes, aqueous alkaline cleaners combined with mechanical action like ultrasonics can effectively break down and remove grease residues in an environmentally friendly way.

    How can I verify that grease removal was successful?

    Verification can be done via surface cleanliness tests such as wipe sampling, infrared spectroscopy, or contact angle measurements to ensure no residues remain.

    Is grease removal compatible with automated cleaning systems?

    Absolutely. Automated degreasing and cleaning lines can be optimized for consistent and efficient grease removal, enhancing throughput and quality.

    What environmental and safety factors should be considered?

    Modern grease removal solutions by INVENTEC emphasize low VOC content, biodegradability, and compliance with environmental regulations for safer, greener processes.

    Does grease removal impact subsequent manufacturing steps?

    Effective grease removal ensures optimal adhesion, solderability, and coating performance, reducing defects and improving final product reliability.

    Does INVENTEC offer grease removal solutions?

    Yes, INVENTEC Performance Chemicals provides a range of powerful and environmentally responsible grease removal products tailored to industrial electronics and metal component cleaning.
