Product Description

3M NovecHFE-7100 Engineered Fluid, methoxy-nonafluorobutane (C4F9OCH3), is a clear,colorless and low-odor fluid intended to replace ozone-depleting substances (ODSs) and compounds with high global warming potential (GWP) in many applications. Its physical properties are compared with several other ODS replacement fluid candidates.
This proprietary fluid has zero ozone depletion potential and other favorable environment properties. It has one of the best toxicological profiles of CFC replacement materials, with a time-weighted average exposure guideline of 750 ppm (eight hour average).
The high boiling point and low surface tension of Novec 7100 fluid make it ideal for use in vapor degreasing applications as a neat (pure), azeotropic component or co-solvent part cleaner. In addition, its chemical and thermal stability, non-flammability and low toxicity make it useful for many other industrial and specialty solvent applications (see below).
