Boeing Approves Lenium GS for Vapor Degreasing

LENIUM GS is a high performance solvent based on stabilized n-propyl bromide (nPB). Designed to operate in open-top and vacuum vapour degreasing equipment, LENIUM GS is a trusted drop-in replacement for trichloroethylene (TCE), HCFC-141b, HCFC-225, hydrofluoroethers (HFEs), hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), perchloroethylene (PCE) and methylene Chloride (MeCl). According to Bill Breault, Aerospace Market Manager at Petroferm, “this approval provides significant value across Boeing’s entire supply chain by offering a drop-in replacement to chlorinated halogens, such as TCE which is a Hazardous Air Pollutant (HAP) and US EPA ruled carcinogen. It also enhances our position as a leading supplier of approved products in all major cleaning technologies.”
