PolyCHECK® is an ideal cleaning validation and failure analysis tool for particle contamination as it enables quality engineers to rapidly sample equipment surfaces to recover foreign particles in ISO 1-8 Cleanrooms. PolyCHECK® attracts and holds particle contamination on the fabric surface for easy transfer to SEM stubs and analysis via Scanning electron microscopy, x-ray dispersion(SEM/EDX), and Fourier transfer infrared spectroscopy (FTIR).
PolyCHECK® is constructed with cleanroom-grade polyester fabric designed to attract and hold contamination after dry wiping surfaces. The ability to attract and retain particulate contamination from large equipment surfaces allows quality engineers and failure analysis labs to identify and eliminate contamination sources. PolyCHECK® is designed to enable SEM/EDX technicians to quickly transfer collected contamination to SEM stubs for further analysis. PolyCHECK®, combined with Foamtec's material science lab, allows customers to perform risk assessments for surface contamination on cleanroom work surfaces and process equipment.
The PolyCHECK® Swab is available for sample recovery on small/hard-to-access surfaces.
The PolyCHECK® Wipe is available gamma-irradiated for investigating non-viable particle levels on equipment in ISO 5 aseptic cleanrooms.
PolyCHECK® is designed with black fabric to ease visual inspections for organic-based particle contamination, which fluoresces when exposed to UV light sources.
