Perrysburg, Ohio – Master Chemical Corp.’s TRIM MicroSol 590XT, an advanced technology aerospace semisynthetic microemulsion, is qualified for areas 5 and 6 of the Boeing process spec BAC5008. Boeing usage area 5 approval includes machining of non-sealant and non-paint parts not described in BAC5008 specification areas 1 through 4, while area 6 includes machining, grinding, or cutting detail parts and assemblies made of titanium alloys. MicroSol 590XT approval can be found in Boeing document PSD 6-137.
Titanium and titanium alloys are commonly used in the aerospace industry, including by Boeing and their subcontractors. This approval by Boeing allows them to use MicroSol 590XT to machine these high-tech aerospace alloys to make parts for all space and aircraft including the 737, 767, 777, and 787 families of airplanes.
“MicroSol 590XT not only meets the demands of specific aerospace customers but it is also environmentally and regulatory compliant for the foreseeable future.” stated Master Chemical’s Director of Global Aerospace Strategic Business Unit, Monte Dhatt.
MicroSol 590XT improves on the performance of previous generations with a robust stability package using environmentally safe ingredients. MicroSol 590XT is free of chlorine, triazine, formaldehyde releasers, phenols, boron, DCHA, and secondary amines. It extends useful life without the need for tank-side biocides or fungicides. MicroSol 590XT provides superior corrosion inhibition on all ferrous and nonferrous metals and keeps parts and machines clean to reduce maintenance and production time.
MicroSol 590XT is low foaming for demanding high-pressure, high-volume applications and it provides an optimized combination of cooling and lubricity to titanium, aluminum, steel, stainless steel, and Inconel machining applications.
