  2. Trichloroethylene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trichloroethylene

    Perhaps the greatest use of TCE is as a degreaser for metal parts. It has been widely used in degreasing and cleaning since the 1920s because of its low cost, low flammability, low toxicity and high effectivity as a solvent. The demand for TCE as a degreaser began to decline in the 1950s in favor of the less toxic 1,1,1-trichloroethane.

  3. Triton X-100 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triton_X-100

    Triton X-100 (C 14 H 22 O(C 2 H 4 O) n) is a nonionic surfactant that has a hydrophilic polyethylene oxide chain (on average it has 9.5 ethylene oxide units) and an aromatic hydrocarbon lipophilic or hydrophobic group.

  4. Solvent degreasing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solvent_degreasing

    Solvent degreasing is a process used to prepare a part for further operations such as electroplating or painting. Typically it uses petroleum , chlorine , dry ice or alcohol based solvents to dissolve the machining fluids and other contaminants that might be on the part.

  9. Drilling fluid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drilling_fluid

    This is most often used on offshore rigs because it has the properties of an oil-based mud, but the toxicity of the fluid fumes are much less. This is important when the drilling crew works with the fluid in an enclosed space such as an offshore drilling rig. Synthetic-based fluid poses the same environmental and analysis problems as oil-based ...
