ABZOL® cleaners
line

ABZOL cleaners are high-performance precision cleaning solvents for vapor degreasing, cold cleaning and ultrasonic cleaning, but with some very important differences from the chlorocarbons, hydrochlorocarbons and chlorofluorocarbons you may be using now.

They offer very low Ozone Depletion Potential (ODP) and very low Global Warming Potential (GWP). They have no flash point by either the tag closed cup or open cup methods, and they're easy to recycle, compatible with metals, and less likely to cause corrosion than some other solvents.
