Features Of KEY-115 Electronic Fluorinated Liquid

  1. Non-conductive and electrically inert — safe for use in live electronic components and high-voltage environments.

  2. Zero ozone depletion potential (ODP = 0) and ultra-low global warming potential (GWP < 10), compliant with evolving environmental regulations.

  3. Fast-drying, residue-free evaporation at room temperature — eliminates post-cleaning drying steps.

  4. Chemically stable with common metals, plastics, and elastomers — no swelling, cracking, or corrosion observed under standard operating conditions.

  5. Low surface tension and excellent wettability — ensures thorough penetration into fine-pitch PCB assemblies and microelectromechanical systems (MEMS).

Typical Applications Of KEY-115 Electronic Fluorinated Liquid

  1. Critical cleaning of printed circuit boards (PCBs), solder paste residues, and flux contaminants prior to conformal coating.

  2. Dielectric testing fluid for high-precision sensor calibration and insulation resistance verification.

  3. Carrier solvent for precision deposition of functional nanomaterials in semiconductor packaging processes.

  4. Final rinse medium in vapor phase degreasing systems for aerospace-grade avionics assemblies.

  5. Thermal interface fluid for transient thermal management during burn-in and functional testing of power modules.

KEY-115 Electronic Fluorinated Liquid – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the CAS Registry Number for KEY-115?

A: The CAS number for KEY-115 Electronic Fluorinated Liquid is 202905-28-6.


Q2: What is the recommended usage concentration for immersion cleaning?

A: KEY-115 is used neat (100% concentration); dilution is not required or recommended, as it is formulated for optimal performance in pure form.


Q3: How does KEY-115 compare to traditional chlorinated solvents like TCE or nPB?

A: Unlike TCE or nPB, KEY-115 contains no chlorine or bromine, eliminating toxic metabolite formation, carcinogenicity concerns, and ozone-depleting behavior — while delivering equivalent or superior cleaning efficacy on polar and non-polar residues.


Q4: Is KEY-115 subject to migration or leaching when used as a thermal interface material?

A: No measurable migration or extractables have been detected per IEC 60068-2-66 testing; its high molecular weight and low volatility ensure long-term positional stability under thermal cycling (−40 °C to +125 °C).


Q5: Does KEY-115 require special disposal handling?

A: KEY-115 is classified as non-hazardous for landfill disposal per EPA 40 CFR Part 261 (non-D-listed, non-P-listed); however, recycling via licensed fluorinated solvent reclamation is strongly encouraged.
