Abstract

Cleaning Processes are widely employed in the manufacturing processes of many industries and various environmental contaminants are generated during their operation. Thus, as the environmental and safety regulations are getting severer at home and abroad, it is indispensable that the existing cleaning agents which are causing environmental and safety problems should be replaced by the more environmentally-friendly alternative ones. In order to select alternative cleaning agents, it is necessary that their cleaning power is equivalent to or better than that of existing cleaning agents. However, the evaluation methods of cleaning power of industrial cleaning agents have not been established for comparison of cleanliness. In this study, various kinds of evaluation methods of cleanliness which can be utilized in the laboratory or in the industrial field are examined and their field application cases are reviewed and analyzed.

세정공정은 여러 산업체의 생산공정에 활용되고 있는 공정으로서 세정과정중 다양한 환경 오염물질을 배출하고 있다. 따라서, 환경 및 안전규제가 국내외적으로 엄격하여짐에 따라 기존의 세정공정에서 사용되었던 세정제를 환경문제나 유해성 문제를 야기시키지 않는 환경친화적인 세정제로 대체하는 것이 절실한 실정이다. 대체세정제를 선정하기 위해서 기존의 세정제에 필적할 만한 세정성을 갖춰야 하지만 세정성 평가방법이 정립되어 있지 않은 실정이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 실험실이나 산업체에서 활용 가능한 여러 가지 세정평가법을 정리하여 보았고 국내외 현장 적용사례를 조사 분석하였다.
