MATERIAL COMPATIBILITY |
| Valtron® SP2200 |
Alkaline blend of anionic and non-ionic surfactants and solvent for complete contamination removal |
Megasonics, ultrasonics, immersion,
hand scrub |
All duty precision cleaning where surfaces must be contamination free, with no residues remaining prior to coating |
Light oils, particulates, stacking wax, tape residue, wax, PSA |
Most glass, gallium arsenide, plastics, quartz, sapphire, silicon and silicon carbide, avoid BK-7 |
| Valtron® SP2275 |
Neutral pH detergent for cleaning of substrates sensitive to acids or alkalis |
Megasonics, ultrasonics, immersion,
hand scrub |
Where caustics or acids are not tolerated. SP2275 is environmentally friendly |
Wax, various polishing slurries, light oils |
Most glass including BK-7, aluminum and reactive metals, silicon, germanium |
| Valtron® SP2275-LF |
Neutral detergent for cleaning of substrates sensitive to acids or alkalis. Low foaming formulation |
Megasonics, ultrasonics, immersion,
hand scrub |
Clean various optical components with minimal foam |
Mounting wax and various polishing slurries, light oils |
Most glass formulations including BK-7 |
| Valtron® SP2250-2LF |
Low foam alkaline formula with non-ionic surfactants, solvents |
Megasonics, ultrasonics, spray, immersion tanks |
Robust formula can be used in pressure spray washers including flat panel scrubbers |
Light oils, particulates, wax, PSA, light cutting oils |
Most glass formulations, soda lime, Corning 7059, zinc selenide, Corning 1737, avoid BK-7 glass |

hand scrub |
Potassium hydroxide base ensures heavy organic (oil, grease) removal from most substrates |
Hydrocarbons and other hydrophobic soils |
Most glass formulations, avoid BK-7 |
| Valtron® DP020 |
Moderately alkaline detergent with low surface tension for removal of the most tenacious soils in glass manufacturing |
Ultrasonics, immersion,
hand wipe |
Immersion of polished glass material in DP020 will wet out and penetrate for removing contamination |
Alumina and cerium oxide, diamond slurry, light oil, fingerprints, wax, pitch, particles |
Borosilicate, Corning 1737, Corning 7059, fused silica, germanium, sapphire, soda lime, quartz, zinc selenide |
