First Contact™ Polymer Solutions provide Next Generation cleaning technology allowing researchers and practitioners the ability to clean optics without any possibility of scratching precision surfaces or optical thin films. These products can be applied with a brush, pipette, or by spraying. When used properly there is no way to scratch the substrate – no matter how much particulate matter is on the dirty surface.

Is a safe, one-part, easy to use strip coating. It cleans and protects precision surfaces in use, during assembly, in shipping and in storage. Leaving zero residue, First Contact goes on as a liquid, dries to a flexible, resilient film and peels off with low adhesion and no tearing. It’s fast and environmentally friendly.

  • Clean off contaminants and nano-particulates
  • Remove fingerprints (skin oils)
  • Leave no residue
  • Remove residue from treatments using other products or chemicals
  • Leave optical thin films intact on optics, mirrors, and gratings
  • Physically protect optics from airborne contaminants and accidental contact

Cleaning & Protection: First Contact™ provides a thin film to oxygen, sulfur compounds, water (not immersion) and water vapor. The tough, elastic film prevents abrasion damage and eliminates the possibility of sensitive surfaces becoming scratched or dirty.

 Safe for use on: First Contact™ is safe to use on all glasses and metals, also silica, Si, Ge, NaCl, KBr, KRS-5 etc. and all polar inorganic crystals including nonlinear optical crystals like coated BBO. It is safe on all coatings, including AR & reflective coatings, and most first surface mirrors & gratings.
