Solvents
Solvents play a crucial role in surface preparation. The purpose of cleaning a surface before bonding a material with a solvent is to remove dust, dirt, and oils but also to not leave a film behind that could impair the bond strength.
Things to consider when choosing a solvent are some of the following. What material(s) are you prepping? Is there a specific residue you’re attempting to remove? Possibly from the manufacturing process of that material. Is there a need for a certain evaporation rate?
Solvents become even more important for creating a clean surface when different variables will be affecting the bond. Such as odd contours and shapes, vibration or stress, extreme temperatures, and when chemical or natural resistance is necessary.
