Opteon™ SF33 Specialty Fluid

Multi-Purpose Specialty Fluid with Superior Material Compatibility

Opteon™ SF33 specialty fluid is a proprietary hydrofluoroolefin (HFO) fluid targeted for use in aerosol formulations, cleaning, and drying, and carrier fluid industrial solvent applications. In industrial solvent applications, Opteon™ SF33 can replace:

  • Hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs)
  • Perfluoropolyethers (PFPEs)
  • Hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs)
  • Hydrofluoroethers (HFEs)

Opteon™ SF33 is used in many military, aerospace, and semiconductor manufacturing industry applications. Typical uses for this nonflammable fluid include:

  • Metal degreasing
  • Lubricant deposition
  • Electronics cleaning
  • Precision cleaning
  • Rinsing agent
  • Aerosol solvent
  • Heat transfer fluid

Features and Benefits

Opteon™ SF33 specialty fluid has zero ozone depletion potential (ODP) and a very low global warming potential (GWP) of 2. It is clear and colorless, with a low boiling point.

Opteon™ SF33 is compatible with most metals, plastics, and elastomers. It also does no damage if these materials are exposed to it in say, a vapor degreaser.
