3M™ Novec™ 73DE Engineered Fluid is designed for heavy-duty vapoUr degreasing, immersion cleaning, or lubricant deposition; featuring high solvency, low surface tension, non-flammability and fluid stability.

3M™ Novec™ 73DE fluid is a high performing, cost effective replacement for n propyl bromide (nPB or 1 bromopropane), trichloroethylene (TCE), ozone depleting hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs) like HCFC 225 (Asahiklin AK 225) and HCFC 141b and high global warming potential (GWP) hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) for a wide range of cleaning applications. Vapour degreasing with Novec 73DE fluid can also help save you time and money over aqueous cleaning by offering faster cycle times, lower energy usage and improved cleaning of parts with complex geometries.
