From "usable" to "can be used continuously?" The choice of "not using" PFAS. Industrial cleaning agent 'VB1000'.
Due to the progress of the comprehensive regulation of PFAS under the REACH regulation, there may be a demand for explanations regarding the continued use of fluorinated cleaning agents and cleaning agents containing fluorinated surfactants. Cleaning agents are often thought to be "used only in the process" and "do not remain in the product because they are rinsed off," but when using agents containing PFAS in the process, issues such as the potential for residue in the product, transfer to wastewater and waste liquids, explanations along the supply chain, and alternatives may arise. In particular, fluorinated surfactants may be added in small amounts to cleaning agents for the purposes of low surface tension, wettability, permeability, and foam control. Therefore, it is important to identify cleaning agents and process chemicals that include not only PFOS and PFOA but also a broader category of PFAS. 'VB1000' is a water-based high-performance cleaning agent composed of water and minerals. Since it does not use PFAS, surfactants, or organic solvents, it is suitable for consideration as a replacement for fluorinated cleaning agents and surfactant-based cleaning agents. It can be applied to existing processes such as immersion, spraying, wiping, and ultrasonic cleaning, and it is also possible to adjust cleaning performance by combining heating conditions. It is possible to conduct confirmations tailored to actual processes, such as considering replacements from current products, sample evaluations, SDS checks, material impacts, drying conditions, and residue confirmations.

basic information
"VB1000" is a water-based high-performance cleaning agent composed solely of water and minerals. It is designed without the use of synthetic chemicals, surfactants, organic solvents, or PFAS. Unlike emulsification with surfactants, it employs a cleaning mechanism that separates oil, allowing for oil-water separation and enabling reuse under certain conditions. This contributes to reducing the burden of wastewater treatment and waste liquid management. Additionally, when used in conjunction with ultrasonic cleaning, it demonstrates superior cleaning performance compared to conventional solvent-based and surfactant-based cleaners. The cleaning effect is further enhanced under heated conditions. It is often non-flammable and falls outside the scope of fire safety regulations, eliminating the need for explosion-proof equipment or special storage management, thus reducing equipment and operational costs. It can be used on a variety of materials, including metals, plastics, and rubber, and is easily applicable to existing equipment.

Applications/Examples of results
- Degreasing and cleaning of metal parts (removal of cutting oil and processing oil) - Cleaning of precision parts (removal of organic residues and fine particles) - Pre-treatment and intermediate cleaning in semiconductor and electronic component manufacturing processes - Cleaning considerations for vacuum components and analytical instrument parts - In-process cleaning of automotive and machinery parts - Consideration for replacement from solvent cleaning (fluorine-based, hydrocarbon-based, etc.) The applicability can be determined based on evaluations that comply with existing process conditions (temperature, time, drying conditions). Since optimal conditions vary by application, practical evaluation using samples is recommended.
