ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE:
The invention provides a cleaning composition containing as an active component an aliphatic fluorohydrocarbon represented by the formula CnFmH2n+2-m wherein 4?n?6 and 6?m?12.

Description

CLEANING COMPOSITION
The present invention relates to a cleaning composition and more particularly to a cleaning composition which is suitable for removal of fluxes, fats and oils, dust, etc.
deposited on IC components, components of precision instruments or the like.
In the manufacture of IC components, somponents of precision instruments, etc., cleaning has been heretofore conducted usually using an organic solvent to remove the fluxes, dust and the like which deposited on components during assembling. For such cleaning, 1,1,2-trichloro-1,2,2--trifluoroethane (R-113) has been widely used as the organic solvent. R-113 is nonflammable, low in toxicity and excellent in stability. Further, R-113, which has a proper solvency, can selectively dissolve only dirts and is unlikely to corrode metals, plastics, elastomers and the like. Printed boards to be cleaned for removal of fluxes are mostly composite products composed of metals, plastics, elastomers and the like. Also from this viewpoint, R-113 is beneficial.
However, use of R-113 is being restricted because R-113 would be likely to destroy the ozone layer in the stratosphere and may become the cause of cutaneous cancer.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a cleaning composition which is utterly unlikely to destroy ~3~ 421 the ozone layer and which is capable of accomplishing effective cleaning for removal of fluxes, oils and the like.
It is another object of the invention to provide a cleaning composition which has such a suitable solvency that it can selectively dissolve only dirts and it will not corrode metals, plastics, elastomers, etc.
We conducted extensive research to achieve the foregoing objects, and found the following. Specific aliphatic fluorohydrocarbons are (1) entirely free from the possibility of destroying the ozone layer because of the absence of chlorine in the molecule; (2) outstanding in the ability to remove fluxes, fats and oils, dust, etc.; and (3) capable of selectively dissolving only dirts without corroding composite products composed of metals, plastics, elastomers, etc. because of their proper solvency like that of R-113 heretofore used. The present invention has been accomplished based on these novel findings.
~ ccording to the present invention, there is provided a cleaning composition containing as an active component an aliphatic fluorohydrocarbon represented by the formula CI~FmH21~ +2-m wherein ~n<6 and 6<m<12.
The cleaning composition according to the invention contains as an active component an aliphatic fluorohydrocarbon represented by the formula ~ .

The composition of the invention may contain at least one organic solvent selected from the group consisting of 2~3~21 hydrocarbons, alcohols, esters and ketones in or~er to increase the solvency for dissolving fluxes. The amount of the organic solvent used is not specifically limited, usually about 30% by weight or less, preferably about 0.5 to about 10% by weight, more preferably about 1 to about 8% by weight, based on the whole amount of the cleaning composition of the invention. If the mixture of the aliphatic fluorohydrocarbon and the organic solvent can be an azeotropic composition, it is preferred to use the mixture as the azeotropic composition.
Useful hydrocarbons are not specifically limited.

Useful alcohols are not specifieally limited.

Examples of such ketones are acetone, 2-butanone, 2-pentanone, 3-pentanone, 4-methyl-2-pentanone, etc. Among them, acetone, 2-butanone, 4-methyl-2-pentanone, etc. are preferred.
The composition of the invention may further contain ingredients heretofore used for this kind of cleaning compositions according to a particular application. Useful ingredients are surfactants and li.ke auxiliary agents for cleaning compositions, stabilizers, hydrogen-containing chlorofluorohydrocarbons which would be less likely to destroy the ozone layer, hydrogen-containing fluorohydrocarbons and other hydrocarbons which are entirely free from the possibility of destroying the ozone layer, and so on. In removal of fluxes, fats and oils, dust, etc.

~12-Example 3 A flux (trade name: F~AL-4, product of Tamura Seisakusho) was applied on a printed board (10 cm x 10 cm) and the coated board was preheated at 110C. Soldering was conducted at 250C for 5 seconds. A test for ability to remove fluxes was conducted using the cleaning compositions of the invention as listed below in Table 3 by subjecting the printed board treated above to ultrasonic cleaning for 60 seconds and to vapor cleaning for 60 seconds.
After the cleaning, the degree of removal of the flux was evaluated by observing the printed board with the unaided eye and according to the following criteria. On the other hand, the amount of ionic residue was measured using an Omega meter 500 (trade name of a product of KENKO) and utilized for evaluation according to the following criterion. Table 3 shows the results.
Criteria for evaluation of the degree of removal of flux with the unaided eye:
A: The flux was removed satisfactorily B: A slight degree of flux remained unremoved C: A considerable degree of flux remained unremoved Criterion for evaluation by the amount of ionic residue:
Exhibiting satisfactory ability to remove fluxes when the amount of the inonic residue is up to 2 ~gNaCl/cm2 2~ 14~L

Exam~le 4 A 100 mesh-cylindrical wire net (25~ x 15H mm) on which spindle oil was deposited was immersed in the cleaning composition of the invention heated to 60OC, followed by 60 seconds of ultrasonic cleaning. The wire net was further immersed in a solvent heated to 40 to 60C and subjected to shaking with hands or to ultrasonic cleaning for 60 seconds.
Thereafter, vapor cleaning was conducted for 60 seconds, whereby the cleaning composition was tested for degreasing ability. After the test, the quantity of oil remaining on the wire net was measured by an oil content meter (product of Horiba, Ltd.) and the degree of removal of oils was expressed in cleaning degree (%).
