1、Designation: D6361/D6361M 98 (Reapproved 2015)Standard Guide forSelecting Cleaning Agents and Processes1This standard is issued under the fixed designation D6361/D6361M; the number immediately following the designation indicates theyear of original adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of l
2、ast revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of lastreapproval. A superscript epsilon () indicates an editorial change since the last revision or reapproval.1. Scope1.1 This guide is intended to assist design engineers,manufacturing/industrial engineers, and production managersin selecti
3、ng the best fit cleaning agent and process. This guidetakes into account environmental pollution prevention factorsin a selection process.1.2 This guide is not to be considered as a database ofacceptable materials. It will guide the engineers and managersthrough the cleaning material selection proce
4、ss, calling forengineers to customize their selection based on the cleaningrequirements for the cleaning tasks at hand. If a part can becleaned, and kept clean, it can be cycled through severalprocess steps that have cleaning requirements. This eliminatesextra cleaning process steps during the total
5、 process.Atotal lifecycle cost analysis or performance/cost of ownership study isrecommended to compare the methods available.1.3 This guide is for general industry manufacturing, equip-ment maintenance and remanufacturing operations, and tosome extent precision cleaning of mechanical parts and asse
6、m-blies. It is not intended to be used for optical, medical, orelectronics applications, nor is it intended for dry-cleaning orsuper-critical fluid cleaning.1.4 The values stated in either SI units or inch-pound unitsare to be regarded separately as standard. The values stated ineach system may not
7、be exact equivalents; therefore, eachsystem shall be used independently of the other. Combiningvalues from the two systems may result in non-conformancewith the standard.1.5 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility
8、of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.

Terminology3.1 Definitions of Terms Specific to This Standard:3.1.1 cleaning effciency, nthe measure of how well acleaning agent is able to clean a substrate.3.1.2 level of cleanliness, nthe degree to which a partmust be cleaned in order
20、to perform successfully in subsequentmanufacturing or maintenance procedures, or to perform ad-equately in its final application.3.1.3 pre-cleaning, nthe initial cleaning step to removegross contaminants prior to a precision cleaning process.4. Summary of Guide4.1 The following is a summary of the f
21、ive step approach forselecting general cleaning agents and processes for use inmanufacturing, overhaul, and maintenance in industrial opera-tion. For each step, the user of the guide will provide specificinformation on a particular aspect of their process. Then, theuser should consult the guide, whi
22、ch will provide appropriateguidance on evaluation criteria that should be followed in orderto evaluate the potential cleaning agents. Table 1 provides asummary of the user-defined requirements information and theprocedures to be provided by this guide. The order of the stepspresented in Table 1 is s
23、uggested, but not crucial to thesuccessful use of this guide. Section 6 will provide greaterdetails on both the user input and the guidance provided.5. Significance and Use5.1 This guide is to be used by anyone developing cleaningrequirements for specifications for manufacturing,maintenance, or over
24、haul. This guide has been designed to beapplication specific for each cleaning task and to assure thedesign engineer that the process selected by the industrial ormanufacturing engineer will be compatible with both the partmaterial and the subsequent process(es). This guide allows theindustrial or m
25、anufacturing engineer to customize the selectionof the cleaning product based on the materials of the part beingcleaned; the cleanliness required for the subsequent pro-cess(es); and the environmental, cost, and health and safetyconcerns.6. Procedure6.1 Step 1Define the Requirements of the FacilityT
26、hefirst step taken in selecting a replacement cleaner is todetermine which cleaners or classes of cleaners are acceptableto the requirements of the facility. These requirements includeenvironmental, safety, and health requirements and the physi-cal and chemical properties of the cleaner itself.6.1.1
27、 Environmental, Safety, and Health RequirementsTable 2 presents some of the more common concerns regardingcleaning agents and their effects on the environment, andworker safety and health.

37、esthe short title and the specification number for each of the teststhat must be performed in order to ensure material compatibil-ity with the cleaning agent. It is important to note that alloysbehave differently than pure metals and different alloys behavedifferently than other alloys; therefore, s
38、pecific alloys must beutilized when conducting these compatibility tests. If data arenot available on a specific alloy with a specific cleaner, the datamust be developed prior to the use of the cleaner.TABLE 4 Material Compatibility RequirementsMaterial Type Short Title StandardSteel Total Immersion
