Absorbond® Nonwoven Polyester Cleanroom Swabs

Texwipe Cleanroom Swabs are made from 100% polyester (hydroentangled) nonwoven material. The complete thermal bond construction eliminates the risk of adhesive contamination. Cleanroom manufactured, made to exacting and consistent tolerances using high-precision automated processes. Lot coded for traceability and quality control. Packaged in a silicone-free and amide-free bag.

• Double layer of nonwoven polyester fabric for enhanced absorbency and contaminant capture
• The softness of the material makes it suitable for sensitive surfaces
• Excellent chemical resistance for compatibility with a variety of solutions
• Cleanroom processed - providing ultra-low levels of particles, Non-Volatile Residue (NVR), and ions
• 100% virgin polypropylene handle ensures no additional contaminants are introduced while offering excellent chemical resistance
• Autoclave safe

Texwipe cleaning validation cleanroom swabs are used to determine the effectiveness of cleaning protocols as specified by the US FDA. HPLC/ UV-Vis Total Organic Carbon (TOC) analysis are different methods used to validate these cleaning processes.

• All Cleaning Validation swabs are precision-manufactured and constructed to exacting and consistent tolerances without the use of adhesives for superior performance
• Notched, rigid 100% polypropylene, break-away handle allows the head to be placed into the vial with minimal handling and contamination and provides excellent chemical resistance
• Lot coded for traceability and quality control
• The nonwoven polyester head provides excellent recovery rates by entrapping contaminants in the swab structure without adhering to the swab head, allowing complete release into the diluent
• Double-layered, double-knit polyester head entraps contaminants in the knit structure during sampling, allowing maximum contaminant collection and release into the diluent to provide excellent recovery rates
