Abstract
The present invention relates to solvent compositions including an effective amount of 1-chloro-3,3,3-trifluoropropene and uses thereof. In certain aspects, such solvent compositions may be applied to the surface of an article or portion of an article having an ink or ink-based marking so as to remove the ink or ink-based marking without deleteriously impacting the article or surface of the article.
Claims28
A solvent composition for removing an ink or ink-based marking from an article comprising:
- an effective amount of 1-chloro-3,3,3-trifluoropropene;
- and
- at least one C1-C3 alcohol;
- and
- optionally at least one C4-C6 hydrocarbon,
- wherein the total amount of both the C1-C3 alcohol and C4-C6 hydrocarbon is from greater than 0 wt % to about 10 wt %, based on the total weight of the composition.
A method for removing an ink or ink-based marking from an article or a surface of an article comprising:
- providing an article having an ink or ink-based marking on at least a portion of its surface;
- applying to the portion of the surface of the article with the ink or ink-based marking a solvent composition comprising an effective amount of 1-chloro-3,3,3-trifluoropropene;
- removing the solvent composition and the ink or ink-based marking from the surface of the article.
A method for removing an ink or ink-based marking from an article or a surface of an article comprising:
- providing an article having an ink or ink-based marking on at least a portion of its surface wherein the ink or ink-based marking was applied during manufacturing of the article or a portion of the article;
- applying to the portion of the surface of the article with the ink or ink-based marking a solvent composition comprising an effective amount of 1-chloro-3,3,3-trifluoropropene;
- removing the solvent composition and the ink or ink-based marking from the surface of the article.
