Acesolve SI is a special solvent developed to remove silicone based sealants from
surfaces, rotating sealing tables, sealing machinery, etc.
As Acesolve SI shows a strong solvent effect on plastics, paints and seals, we recommend a
compatibility test prior to its large scales use. Polyethylene, Polypropylene and Teflon based
materials (e.g. Kalrez* and Zalak*) are resistant seal materials; rubber, PVC, polyurethane
and Viton may be attacked by Acesolve SI.

Uncured sealant residues can be removed easily by Acesolve SI.
Acesolve SI can be also used to clean parts of sealant mixing machines (e.g. mixer tubes
and pistols). The degree of cleaning achieved depends on the state of cure of the silicone
sealant. Fully cured sealant deposits will not be dissolved in any solvent, they will only swell.
As Acesolve SI evaporates very slowly, remainders of the solvent should be removed prior to
use by either blowing out with compressed air or by base purging.

When using the product we recommend the use of suitable gloves. Safety instructions for
the handling can be found in the Material Safety Data Sheet.
Stored in well-closed containers at temperatures between 5 and 40 °C the minimum shelf
life of Acesolve SI is 1 year.
