Slanina, J T

A solvent containing the chlorinated hydrocarbon 1,1,1-trichloroethane, was previously used to clean printed wiring boards following the contouring and inspection operations. An alkaline detergent was selected and evaluated as a replacement. Tests showed the detergent produced an acceptable level of cleanliness (resistance readings greater than 2 megohm-centimeters).
