描述
3M Novec 7200DL Engineered Fluid High Purity Deposition Fluid
Chemistry: Ethoxy-nonafluorobutane
Boiling Point: 76°C
NVR: 1.0 ppm max
GWP: 55
Packing: 5 kg / 20 kg drum
3M Novec 7200DL Engineered Fluid is a high purity version of 3M Novec 7200, specifically developed to meet the demanding purity requirements of the disk drive and electronics industries. With tightly controlled specifications for ions, metals, particulate, and non-volatile residue (NVR ≤1.0 ppm maximum), this clear, colorless, low-odor fluid is used for lubricant deposition onto hard disk media and cleaning of head gimbal assemblies. Its high purity and consistent quality also make it suitable for medical device manufacturing and other electronics applications requiring ultra-clean processing.
Novec 7200DL offers the same excellent environmental and safety profile as standard Novec 7200 — zero ozone depletion potential, an exceptionally low GWP of 55, and an atmospheric lifetime of less than one year (0.77 years). Its higher boiling point (76°C) reduces evaporative losses compared to lower-boiling fluids, while its low surface tension (13.6 dynes/cm) and low viscosity (0.58 cP) enable excellent wetting and penetration for precision deposition and cleaning. With an exposure guideline of 200 ppm (8-hour TWA) and compatibility with most metals, plastics, and elastomers, Novec 7200DL is a safe, sustainable choice for critical manufacturing processes.
