IN RECENT YEARS, FUNCTIONAL SUBSTITUTES HAVE BEEN DEVELOPED FOR CHLOROFLOUROCARBONS, METHYL CHLOROFORM, AND OTHER HALOGENATED SOLVENTS IN MOST OF THEIR LARGE-VOLUME APPLICATIONS. ADHESIVE RESIDUE REMOVAL IS ONE OF THE MOST DEMANDING OF THESE. TERPENE-BASED ADHESIVE RESIDUE REMOVERS HAVE BEEN ON THE MARKET FOR ALMOST 10 YEARS, AND HAVE ACHIEVED SUCCESS ESPECIALLY IN THE ELECTRONICS INDUSTRY. MORE RECENTLY, TERPENE AND OTHER HALOGEN-FREE PRODUCTS HAVE FOUND INCREASING ACCEPTANCE IN INDUSTRIAL ADHESIVE CLEANUP APPLICATION. THESE PRODUCTS ARE USED IN PROCESSES THAT DIFFER SUBSTANTIALLY FROM THOSE IN WHICH THE VOLATILE HALOGENATED SOLVENTS HAVE TRADITIONALLY BEEN USED. SEVERAL TERPENE-BASED PRODUCT ATTRIBUTES ARE DISCUSSED.
