Solvent Cleans

• Acetone, IPA
  • Solvent for organics, IPA cleans remaining residues due to acetone's high evaporation rate
• Acetone, Methanol
  • Similar to above except Methanol is more toxic, and a polar chemical versus IPA which is non-polar
• Acetone, Methanol, IPA
• Acetone, Methanol, IPA, DI Water
• Remover PG (50°C), IPA
• Dichloromethane, IPA
  • Caution, high evaporation rate may leave residue and beakers get quickly condense water/ice
• Nanostrip?
