A Mykal Industries product story
Edited by the Engineeringtalk editorial team May 31, 2005

De.Solv.It DSI 1000FD fast dry precision cleaner has been awarded a DefStan number as approved for use within the armed forces in the UK.

De.Solv.It DSI 1000FD fast dry precision cleaner has been awarded a DefStan number as approved for use within the armed forces in the UK.

Following a search and trials with a variety of products, DSI 1000FD was awarded the MOD Defence Standard 08-121 (NES 844) for "Acoustic cladding treatment using epoxide adhesive systems" - essentially the cleaning and preparation of surfaces prior to bonding.

The DSI 1000FD fast dry precision cleaner was chosen due to its excellent degreasing performance, fast drying capabilities and good safety profile.

The fact it is not a chlorinated, aromatic or paraffin-based cleaner was very much in its favour due to the enclosed working conditions.

Based on the same best-selling citrus chemistry as Mykal's DSI 1000 high performance degreaser, DSI 1000FD fast dry precision cleaner is designed for the degreasing and precision cleaning of engineering and electrical components, including printed circuit boards.

It has a high dielectric strength of 30kV and removes soils such as oils, greases and cutting fluids.

It is ideally suited to the pretreatment of surfaces prior to bonding or coating as the fast drying formulation leaves no surface residue and contains no ozone depleting chlorinated solvents.

As part of a complete, industry proven cleaning solution, the De.Solv.It range from Mykal can offer excellent degreasing performance, approved at the highest levels of industry, without compromising on user and environmental safety.
