HT-Solve 515 is a high-temperature solvent that is suitable for cleaning equipment used in polymer manufacturing processes, including reactor vessels, pipelines, heat exchangers, pumps, and other equipment that is vulnerable to residue buildup. When polymers are manufactured, a plastic powder residue is produced during polymerization and monomer volatilization, building up inside secondary copolymer reactors and transfer lines. This residue accumulates and solidifies on surfaces, causing equipment to lose efficiency. The solvent, a mixture of diphenylethane and alkylated aromatics, thoroughly cleans the processing equipment by dissolving the residue. HT-Solve 515 is thermally stable at temperatures as high as 625ºF and has a low vapor pressure. It provides a more efficient cleaning than mechanical methods because it allows equipment to be cleaned inline without disassembly, reducing downtime and labor requirements associated with cleaning.
