Hydrofluoroether(HFE) is one of the new specialty chemicals that replaces previously used solvents with higher environmental impact. A demonstration of a recovery system for HFE is now taking place that captures HFE vapors and turns them into a liquid that can be reused in the manufacturing process. The solvent-recovery technology is being tailored to reduce operating expenses and emissions in producing computer disks, but is also suitable in semiconductor manufacturing and the aerospace industry. 6, record 4, English, - hydrofluoroether

Grâce aux hydrofluoroéthers 3M, le nettoyage de précision est aussi simple et efficace qu'il l'était avec les produits à base de CFC. [...] Ce produit chimique breveté offre aux utilisateurs l'équilibre parfait entre le rendement, la sécurité des travailleurs et le respect de l'environnement. Les processus à base d'hydrofluoroéthers 3M permettent la production de pièces sans résidus, qui sèchent d'elles-mêmes sans entrer en contact avec de l'eau; la diminution des cycles et la réduction des déchets. Les hydrofluoroéthers se sont avérés efficaces pour l'enlèvement du flux de soudage et des résidus ioniques, le traitement et la manipulation des huiles, des graisses, des fines particules et d'autres contaminants. 3, record 4, French, - hydrofluoro%C3%A9ther
