Abstract: The present invention relates to a agent for cleaning metal drawing oil, which contains alcohol, glycol ether, water, and one or more compounds selected from hydrocarbon or ester compounds. The cleaning agent according to the present invention is environmentally friendly because it does not contain halogen elements such as chlorine. The agent can reduce toxicity on the human body due to low volatility; is economical due to the long change period resulting from the reduction of evaporation; and removes drawing oil having high viscosity and polarity effectively during metal processing.

Abstract: The embodiments of the present invention provide improved materials for cleaning patterned substrates with fine features. The cleaning materials have advantages in cleaning patterned substrates with fine features without substantially damaging the features. The cleaning materials are fluid, either in liquid phase, or in liquid/gas phase, and deform around device features; therefore, the cleaning materials do not substantially damage the device features or reduce damage all together. The cleaning materials containing polymers of a polymeric compound with large molecular weight capture the contaminants on the substrate. In addition, the cleaning materials entrap the contaminants and do not return the contaminants to the substrate surface. The polymers of one or more polymeric compounds with large molecular weight form long polymer chains, which can also be cross-linked to form a network (or polymeric network).

Abstract: The invention is to di-amido gellant that are suitable for use in consumer product compositions.
