Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method for cleaning objects and materials made of metal, glass, ceramic, plastic (s) or composite materials thereof or textiles.
  • Cleaning methods in which a vapor produced by heating a cleaning-active liquid is brought into contact with the objects to be cleaned are used for cleaning a wide variety of objects, such as metallic objects, industrially manufactured objects, such as printed circuit boards, articles of clothing, etc., of undesired ones Impurities such as greases, lapping and polishing pastes, soldering pastes, adhesives, mixtures of inorganic (for example salt-like) and organic (for example consisting of fat residues) dirt etc.
  • chlorinated hydrocarbons have been used until recently for such cleaning tasks. Because of their lack of environmental compatibility, in particular because of their ozone depletion potential, their carcinogenicity and their toxic effect, these have now been banned or at least can only be used under very strict conditions.
  • chlorinated hydrocarbons were used to make them do not have a flash point at temperatures which usually occur. Because of the above disadvantages, they have been replaced by other hydrocarbons or solvents such as polypropylene glycol ether, alcohols, acetone, etc. These have a flash point in the range of normally occurring temperatures and are therefore at risk of ignition. They also have a disadvantage in that they scarcely remove pigment dirt or dirt with ionic salts, since these solvents only very poorly dissolve pigments or salts owing to their ionic character.
  • the invention was based on the object of developing a generic cleaning method in such a way that it can be carried out in an environmentally compatible manner while achieving a good cleaning effect.
  • a further object of the invention was to provide a new cleaning method with which mixtures of inorganic and organic dirt can be removed efficiently at the same time.
  • Another object of the invention was to provide a method for cleaning objects and materials made of metal, which works more gently than previously known methods.
  • Azeotropic preparations which can be used according to the invention as cleaning-active liquids initially have the advantage that their liquid phase dissolves pigment dirt and dirt well with ionic components, for example salts, because of the water content, if the azeotropic preparation used as cleaning-active liquid is in liquid state with the objects to be cleaned comes into contact.
  • the lipophilic group-containing molecules of the at least one further component which is preferably a liquid in itself under ambient conditions or at low treatment temperatures, ensure good fat-dissolving power of the azeotropic preparation.
  • the flash point of the vapor if such exists at all, is above the temperatures normally occurring in such a cleaning process, but at least above the sieving temperature of the liquid and advantageously above about 200 ° C.
  • a flash point above 200 ° C. is particularly advantageous because the protective measures to be taken when carrying out the cleaning process are less extensive than when using cleaning-active liquids with lower flash points.
  • the azeotropic preparation which is present in vapor form at least in part of the process according to the invention, can be condensed either on the objects to be cleaned or by lowering the temperature to the liquid phase, so that complex measures for protecting the atmosphere surrounding the device for carrying out the process, such as they are required in conventional processes, can largely be avoided.
  • An additional advantage of the method according to the invention is therefore that the azeotropic preparation used as the cleaning-active liquid is hardly used because of its extensive back condensation. A closed circuit can thus be created, in which the azeotropic preparation used as a cleaning-active liquid does not have to be filled in or only in negligibly small amounts. This is additionally supported by the fact that the azeotropic preparation used as cleaning-active liquid according to the invention can be free of surfactants, which settle on the filter surface when the cleaning-active liquid is filtered for dirt removal in conventional processes and require re-sharpening in the case of conventionally used solutions .
  • the method according to the invention also reliably removes complex types of dirt, such as dried-up body fluids or other dirt that occurs in everyday use, dirt caused by rain or snow, etc., from the objects to be cleaned.
  • the method according to the invention is not restricted to closed systems. For example, it can also be carried out in the form of an open steam jet cleaning.
  • the water content of the azeotrope of water and further component or further components must be so large that there is no flash point or the steam is not combustible.
  • the liquid and the steam formed from it by heating must neither be toxic nor have ozone depletion potential, nor may they pose a water hazard if the preparation accidentally gets into the environment.
  • Water-soluble, homogeneous azeotrope-forming components or water-insoluble, heterogeneous azeotrope-forming components are suitable.
  • the method according to the invention for cleaning objects comprises the steps of
  • the objects to be cleaned can first be brought into contact with the liquid azeotropic preparation once or several times, for example by immersion, spraying, sprinkling or comparable methods of applying a liquid which are known per se from the prior art.
  • the objects to be cleaned can then be brought into contact with the azeotropic preparation in the form of their vapor once or even several times.
  • the vapor of the azeotropic preparation regularly condenses on the objects to be cleaned and, when it expires, entrains residues removed from the objects to be cleaned.
  • the process according to the invention can be carried out by bringing the objects to be cleaned into contact with a vapor of the azeotropic preparation at least once, but preferably several times.
  • the steam condenses on the objects to be cleaned for the duration of the contact and thereby removes the impurities.
  • an azeotropic preparation of water and at least one component with molecules with hydrophilic and lipophilic groups is used, in which the weight ratio (component (s) with hydrophilic and lipophilic groups): water in the range of 1, 0 to 35.0: 99.0 to 65.0, more preferably in the range 4.0 to 15.0: 96.0 to 85.0.
  • an azeotropic preparation in the form of a mixture of water and at least one further component with molecules with hydrophilic and lipophilic groups is used as the cleaning-active liquid
  • the further (n) Component (s) and the water in the phase transition liquid phase / vapor phase form an azeotrope and the azeotrope an azeotrope with a miscibility gap at a temperature between 0 ° C. and the temperature of the Phase transition is liquid phase / vapor phase at normal pressure.
  • azeotropes with gaps in the mixture have particularly advantageous cleaning properties.
  • An azeotrope with a mixture gap at a temperature in the range from 20 ° C. and 110 ° C. at normal pressure is particularly preferably used.
  • At normal pressure is understood to mean an atmospheric pressure (about 1 atm; about 10 5 Pa).
  • azeotropic preparations which can be used as cleaning-active liquid in the process according to the invention are clear at low temperatures of, for example, 20 to 25 ° C. In other words: the components are completely detached from one another. At any temperature, there are defined ratios of the composition of the components in the mixing phase.
  • the phases present separately at elevated temperature can be converted into a milky-looking emulsion by suitable process steps, preferably for example by sonication with ultrasound, by intensive agitation during pumping or stirring, etc. This emulsion has discontinuous droplets of the organic component (s) in a continuous aqueous phase.
  • the emulsion has excellent fat-dissolving power due to its content of organic components (with molecules with lipophilic groups), but due to the continuous water phase also dissolves water-soluble, eg ionic, impurities, for example salts. If the temperature of the azeotropic preparation is increased further, it passes into the vapor phase in which the components are present in the special composition typical of the respective azeotrope. When condensing, the azeotropic preparation again migrates through the miscibility gap; the vapor of the azeotropic preparation which condenses on the objects to be cleaned is therefore again in the form of the emulsion which has excellent loose properties for both fatty and ionic impurities.
  • water-soluble, eg ionic, impurities for example salts.
