A cleanroom is a sensitive environment that must be monitored for contaminants and harmful airborne debris. Contaminants can be found naturally in the air and can also come in the form of dust, microorganisms, particles, and more.<\/p>\n<p>In order for a cleanroom to sustain its appropriate cleanroom classification, employees not only have to follow stringent Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) but also use the right products that are specifically designed for cleanrooms. Comparing to ordinary wipes, cleanroom wipes have lower levels of lint or shedding to minimize the contaminants. In general they are also engineered to have higher absorbency, better compatibility with chemicals and more effective cleaning capabilities.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-5yq5tl-b635fa951d83aa0946451dd76bfe9044\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-5yq5tl-b635fa951d83aa0946451dd76bfe9044{\nheight:10px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-5yq5tl-b635fa951d83aa0946451dd76bfe9044 hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-7  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_heading '><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-ltdlyd3y-439bdb6159db3d2e14fe4992a95d05ff\">\n#top .av-special-heading.av-ltdlyd3y-439bdb6159db3d2e14fe4992a95d05ff{\npadding-bottom:15px;\n}\nbody .av-special-heading.av-ltdlyd3y-439bdb6159db3d2e14fe4992a95d05ff .av-special-heading-tag .heading-char{\nfont-size:25px;\n}\n.av-special-heading.av-ltdlyd3y-439bdb6159db3d2e14fe4992a95d05ff .av-subheading{\nfont-size:15px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='av-special-heading av-ltdlyd3y-439bdb6159db3d2e14fe4992a95d05ff av-special-heading-h2 blockquote modern-quote  avia-builder-el-8  el_after_av_hr  el_before_av_textblock '><h2 class='av-special-heading-tag'  itemprop=\"headline\"  >Key Performance Metrics for Cleanroom Wipes<\/h2><div class=\"special-heading-border\"><div class=\"special-heading-inner-border\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-1vm5yh-9b3ba80c712fe92ac2a1a2a55b6b7cbe '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>When selecting the right wipes for your cleanroom, you should evaluate following performance metrics and base your decision on manufacturers\u2019\u2019 data and information on those metrics.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Recommended ISO classification:<\/strong>\u00a0Each manufacture should provide recommended ISO classifications for their cleanroom wipes. Wipes with different ISO classifications should be used in corresponding cleanrooms.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Shedding or linting:<\/strong> Shedding or linting determines the cleanliness of the wipe. It is measured in particles and fibers released from the wipe. The cleaner the wipe is the less deposition onto cortical surfaces during wiping. The ISO recommendation for each wipe is largely dependent on how clean the wipe is.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Cleaning capability:<\/strong> It measures each wipe\u2019s ability to remove different kinds of contaminants such as dust, stain, microbes and particles etc. This capability is determined by the material and construction of each wipe and has little to do with the chemicals that will be used when cleaning. There are multiple tests to evaluate the mechanical cleaning performance of cleanroom wipes and most of those tests are conducted with just water.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Absorbency:<\/strong> It has two aspects: rate of liquid absorption and total amount of liquid absorbed. This metric measures how effective each wipe is at picking up liquid or spills. Another metric that is related to absorbency is release. A well-engineered wipe can not only absorb a sufficient amount of liquid but can also release the liquid in a consistent manner onto the surface to maximize the coverage of each wipe.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Softness:<\/strong> if you have sensitive equipment in your cleanrooms, it is important to select wipes that will not cause damage to this equipment.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-2zgph5-e4bf4f29e7fb65eca8da0071555a7e69\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-2zgph5-e4bf4f29e7fb65eca8da0071555a7e69{\nheight:10px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-2zgph5-e4bf4f29e7fb65eca8da0071555a7e69 hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-10  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_heading '><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-44lz3d-4d67c8ed66820c8d3622346bd228b625\">\n#top .av-special-heading.av-44lz3d-4d67c8ed66820c8d3622346bd228b625{\npadding-bottom:15px;\n}\nbody .av-special-heading.av-44lz3d-4d67c8ed66820c8d3622346bd228b625 .av-special-heading-tag .heading-char{\nfont-size:25px;\n}\n.av-special-heading.av-44lz3d-4d67c8ed66820c8d3622346bd228b625 .av-subheading{\nfont-size:15px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='av-special-heading av-44lz3d-4d67c8ed66820c8d3622346bd228b625 av-special-heading-h2 blockquote modern-quote  avia-builder-el-11  el_after_av_hr  el_before_av_textblock '><h2 class='av-special-heading-tag'  itemprop=\"headline\"  >Common Cleanroom Wipe Substrates<\/h2><div class=\"special-heading-border\"><div class=\"special-heading-inner-border\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-ltdmhjoq-759552439100dc03ff36b08cf9723aec '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>Cleanroom wipes can be made of different substrates and they each have their own unique performance characteristics and cost position. Understanding the pros and cons of each material is critical to selecting the most ideal wipe for the cleaning needs of your particular environment. Some of the most common cleanroom wipes are made of nonwoven polyester &amp; cellulose blends, nonwoven polypropylene, knit polyester and microfiber (both nonwoven and knit).<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Nonwoven Polyester Cellulose:<\/strong>\u00a0This is one of the most widely used materials for cleanroom wipes. It is very cost effective and boasts great absorbency. One major downside to this material is that it comparing to other materials, it tends to release more particles and\/or fibers to the environment so it is not as clean. Polyester cellulose is a great choice for cleanrooms with less restrictive air particulate requirements.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Nonwoven Polypropylene<\/strong>: This material is not only cost effective but also very clean. However one major weakness of polypropylene is that it doesn\u2019t absorb well. That is why most nonwoven polypropylene wipes are in the pre-saturated format and used as carriers for liquid application.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Polyester Knit:<\/strong> Knit polyester cleanroom wipes are made with 100% continuous filament knit polyester and are sometimes called woven wipes because of how they are constructed. These wipes releases extremely low fibers or particles making them suitable for cleanrooms with higher classes. They are also ideal for cleaning sensitive equipment due to their exceptional softness. On the flip side, polyester knit wipes are more expensive than nonwoven wipes largely due to the manufacturing process.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Microfiber:<\/strong> This is a relatively new material and is gaining momentum as more and more people start to realize the superior cleaning performance it delivers. Thanks to its extra fine fibers, microfiber can remove various contaminants more effectively than other substrates. Some advanced microfiber wipes claim to remove 99.9% of particles down to 0.1 micron. The chart below shows the particle size of different microorganisms in comparison to human skin cell. This is an innate mechanical removal capability of microfiber that has nothing to do with chemicals. Some chemicals have microbe kill claims but they don\u2019t actually remove dead microbes from the surface. Dead microbes, if remained on the surface, will become food for live pathogens and allow them to proliferate. That is why a microfiber wipe that can remove those microbes from the surface can provide additional insurance to safeguard the environment.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/section><\/p><\/div>\n<div  class='flex_column av-5w0n0p-6e78b14537892c9d2be74468eff9f155 av_one_fifth  avia-builder-el-13  el_after_av_one_full  el_before_av_three_fifth  first flex_column_div  column-top-margin'     ><\/div>\n<div  class='flex_column av-mb2tl-a2934e94de49e7d2c5df28b5b8f91afd av_three_fifth  avia-builder-el-14  el_after_av_one_fifth  el_before_av_one_fifth  flex_column_div  column-top-margin'     ><style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-498315-89d25721eafcf88ba4cab5c6a1a29477\">\n.avia-image-container.av-498315-89d25721eafcf88ba4cab5c6a1a29477 img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-498315-89d25721eafcf88ba4cab5c6a1a29477 .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-498315-89d25721eafcf88ba4cab5c6a1a29477 av-styling- avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-15  avia-builder-el-no-sibling '   itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><img decoding=\"async\" fetchpriority=\"high\" class='wp-image-8443 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-8443 avia_image ' src=\"https:\/\/saturix.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Average-Particle-Size-Horiz-Or.jpg\" alt='' title='Average Particle Size Horiz Or'  height=\"1203\" width=\"1500\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\" srcset=\"https:\/\/saturix.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Average-Particle-Size-Horiz-Or.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/saturix.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Average-Particle-Size-Horiz-Or-300x241.jpg 300w, https:\/\/saturix.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Average-Particle-Size-Horiz-Or-1030x826.jpg 1030w, https:\/\/saturix.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Average-Particle-Size-Horiz-Or-768x616.jpg 768w, https:\/\/saturix.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Average-Particle-Size-Horiz-Or-705x565.jpg 705w, https:\/\/saturix.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/03\/Average-Particle-Size-Horiz-Or-450x361.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1500px) 100vw, 1500px\" \/><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<div  class='flex_column av-23zqft-c58f513b95002a91ac11373808810485 av_one_fifth  avia-builder-el-16  el_after_av_three_fifth  el_before_av_hr  flex_column_div  column-top-margin'     ><\/div>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-ajq8ex-54efba5c5dcc1f655efd360483508dff\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-ajq8ex-54efba5c5dcc1f655efd360483508dff{\nheight:35px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-ajq8ex-54efba5c5dcc1f655efd360483508dff hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-17  el_after_av_one_fifth  el_before_av_textblock '><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-2yvrk15-26eb74a5ab2ba00bc27b9fab50753d4b '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><blockquote>\n<p>Microfiber\u2019s superior cleaning performance is also manifested in its ability to effectively pick up stain and residuals.
