DuPont™ Vertrel® as an Alternate to nPB

A proposed U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) ban on the use of n-Propyl Bromide (nPB) for use in aerosol and adhesive applications will prompt many nPB users to search for a safer alternative.

DuPont™ Vertrel® specialty fluids are a safe, effective alternative to nPB with the following benefits:

  • superior toxicity profile
  • zero ozone-depletion potential
  • fast drying; non-flammable; chemical and thermally stable; safe to use
  • powerful solvency strength; designed to clean a wide range of soils; excellent solubility for adhesives and fluoro/silicone-based lubricants
  • compatible with a broad range of materials, metals, plastics, and elastomers
  • existing equipment can be used with minor or no modifications
  • no acid acceptance testing needed
