"Green" Solvents

Integrated Solvent Substitution Data System, or ISSDS - was created to provide the quick retrieval of information regarding solvents and process alternatives for a variety of cleaning agents and cleaning processes. It is based on data distributed across the Internet.

Case Study: Gentex Optics (1996. free) - Gentex Optics is the leading manufacturer of polycarbonate corrective and non-corrective eyewear for military, industrial, and commercial markets. This case study, developed by the Massachusetts Office of Technical Assistance, shows how Gentex Optics successfully developed a new aqueous system of cleaning and priming optical lenses. This system has been found to be as effective and is some cases more effective, than the Freon 113 system it replaced.
