Technical Product Information

DOWSIL™ DS-2025 Silicone Cleaning Solvent Clear 0.5 L

Product Overview

DOWSIL™ DS-2025 Silicone Cleaning Solvent Clear is a specialized, high-performance liquid cleaning solvent engineered to depolymerize and dissolve cured silicone elastomers, gels, sealants, and greases from manufacturing equipment and industrial surfaces. Unlike conventional organic solvents that merely swell silicone, it chemically breaks down siloxane bonds, rapidly softening cured residues for easy removal. It is ideal for purging automated dispensing lines, flushing mixing heads, and cleaning misapplied silicone materials. Featuring a high flash point for safer handling, the 0.5 liter (500 ml) bottle package offers convenience for precision maintenance, laboratory work, and localized cleaning operations.

Key Features and Benefits

• Superior Silicone Dissolving Power: Chemically breaks down cured RTV and addition-cure silicone rubbers, gels, foams, and greases.
• Equipment Flushing & Maintenance: Efficiently purges robotic dispensing heads, static mixers, and feed lines clogged with hardened silicone.
• High Flash Point: Provides improved occupational safety and easier handling compared to highly flammable volatile solvents.
• Reusable in Immersion Baths: Can be filtered and reused multiple times in soaking tanks for cleaning tools and nozzles.
• Metal Compatibility: Non-corrosive to stainless steel, aluminum, brass, and common engineering metals.
• Convenient 0.5 L (500 ML) Package: Suited for benchtop cleaning, precise manual application, and maintenance workshops.

Technical Specifications

Applications

• Flushing and periodic cleaning of silicone dispensing robots, meter-mix equipment, and supply hoses.
• Removal of misapplied cured silicone gaskets, gap fillers, and adhesives from substrates.
• Soaking bath cleaning for silicone-coated tools, nozzles, mixing tips, and manufacturing jigs.
• Rework processes in electronics manufacturing to remove cured silicone gels and conformal coatings.

Usage Note: DOWSIL™ DS-2025 softens and liquefies silicone over time; soak duration depends on silicone thickness and crosslink density (from minutes to hours). Perform a substrate compatibility check prior to prolonged contact with sensitive plastics or elastomers. Post-clean rinsing with IPA (Isopropyl Alcohol) or water is recommended.
