Boron- and formaldehyde-free

02 March 2015

The specific and changing needs of the aerospace sector has driven Master Chemical’s research and development for many years. The adoption of new, lightweight exotic alloys and advanced composites and the ever-present need for higher productivity, means innovation continues apace. Master Chemical’s latest introduction – TRIM MicroSol 690XT – is an example of this development.

TRIM MicroSol 690XT is a boron- and formaldehyde-free micro-emulsion. It has been formulated to provide higher mechanical lubricity for the gummy materials that are commonly seen in aero structure manufacturing whilst also providing elevated levels of extreme pressure additives for machining of harder, aero engine materials. Master Chemical says this makes the product an effective alternative to high mineral oil content soluble oils on all aerospace alloys where increased machine cleanliness and low top-up rates dramatically decrease overall production costs.

This latest introduction to Master Chemical’s growing stable of boron- and formaldehyde free products is suitable for mixed metal production; it is compatible with a wide range of materials including steels, copper, aluminium alloys as well as plastics and composites. Corrosion inhibition on all ferrous and non-ferrous metals is another benefit.
