CLEANROOM CLEANING AGENTS AND MOP COMPARISON CHARTS
The Table below shows the effectiveness of PROTOGREENTM detergent compared to 12 Megohm DI water and a 70% Isopropyl Alcohol (IPA) and 30% 12 Megohm DI water. Protogreen Cleanroom Surface Cleaner is as effective as or more effective than DI water or the IPA mixture. The average number of particles before testing were 463 @ 0.5 microns and larger and 80 @ 5.0 microns and larger.
