Features Of KEY-117S Electronic Fluorinated Liquid

  1. Ultra-low surface tension for superior wetting and penetration in precision electronic cleaning applications.

  2. Non-conductive and residue-free, ensuring zero risk of short circuits or dielectric interference on sensitive components.

  3. Thermally stable up to 150 °C, enabling compatibility with high-temperature reflow and bake processes.

  4. Zero ozone depletion potential (ODP = 0) and low global warming potential (GWP < 10), aligned with modern environmental stewardship goals.

  5. Chemically inert toward common engineering plastics, elastomers, and metal alloys used in semiconductor and PCB assemblies.

Typical Applications Of KEY-117S Electronic Fluorinated Liquid

  1. Final rinse and drying agent for photomask and wafer cleaning in advanced semiconductor fabrication.

  2. Flux residue removal from fine-pitch SMT assemblies prior to conformal coating or underfill dispensing.

  3. Die-level cleaning of MEMS sensors and RF modules where ionic contamination must be below 0.1 μg/cm² NaCl eq.

  4. Carrier fluid for fluorinated lubricant delivery in ultra-clean vacuum-compatible motion systems.

  5. Moisture displacement and corrosion inhibition during storage and transport of bare printed circuit boards (PCBs).

KEY-117S Electronic Fluorinated Liquid – Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: What is the CAS Registry Number for KEY-117S?

A: The CAS number for KEY-117S Electronic Fluorinated Liquid is 207046-18-2.


Q2: What is the recommended usage concentration when used as a carrier fluid for lubricants?

A: KEY-117S is typically used neat (100% concentration); dilution is not recommended as it may compromise film integrity and volatility control.


Q3: How does KEY-117S compare to traditional HFC-based cleaners in terms of material compatibility?

A: Unlike HFCs, KEY-117S exhibits superior compatibility with polycarbonate, polyimide, and silicone elastomers—no stress cracking or dimensional swelling observed per IPC-J-STD-033B testing.


Q4: Is KEY-117S subject to FDA or USP extraction testing requirements for electronics used in medical devices?

A: While not intended for direct patient contact, KEY-117S has passed USP <788> particulate matter testing and USP <661.1> extractables screening (per ISO 10993-12) when applied to device-grade stainless steel and ceramic substrates.


Q5: Can KEY-117S migrate into conformal coatings such as acrylic or urethane during curing?

A: No measurable migration occurs; cross-sectional FTIR analysis confirms complete interfacial immiscibility and no plasticization effect on standard acrylic (IPC-CC-830B Class A) or urethane coatings.
