CO2 Snow Cleaning Service

Presenting the mosts advanced lens and mirror cleaning service in Oman using Dry Ice Snow Cleaning Method

Only available in store, for international customers, you need to cover shipping of equipment both ways and contact us for manual quotation, international customers might also end up paying for customs on getting back their equipment from from cleaning.

The CO2 Snow Cleaning process removes particles of all sizes, from visible down to 3 – 5 nanometers. At the same time, hydrocarbon-based contamination and organic residues can be removed. Carbon dioxide snow cleaning is nondestructive, nonabrasive, residue-free, and environmentally friendly – there is no chemical waste. The cleaning process is based upon the controlled expansion of either liquid or gaseous carbon dioxide. This expansion leads to the nucleation of small dry ice particles and a high velocity carrier gas stream. Upon impact with a surface, the dry ice removes particles of all sizes by momentum transfer, and hydrocarbons and organics via a transient solvent or a freeze fracture mechanism. The high-velocity gas blows the contaminants away. Additionally, nozzle design changes can be made for cleaning large telescope mirrors.

Carbon Dioxide Snow Cleaning can be used for either initial or final cleaning, and for numerous critical and noncritical cleaning applications in the semiconductor, disk drive, research, vacuum technologies, surface science, surface analysis, optical, medical, analytical instrument, telescopes, art conservation, manufacturing communities, and others.

Carbon Dioxide Snow Cleaning equipment comes in different styles, and most any configuration can address your contamination removal problems.
