Turkiye is a transcontinental republic spanning Europe and Asia. With a population of approximately 86.4 million, the country provides an abundant labor force for its manufacturing sector and a robust domestic consumer market. Turkiye’s automotive and electronics industries have mandatory requirements for low-VOC and environmentally friendly solvents, which is consistent with the properties of Isoparaffin H.
Isoparaffin H (known as Isopar H), a high-purity isoparaffinic solvent, has become the preferred choice for industrial and precision cleaning in Turkiye due to its outstanding properties-low odor, low toxicity, low aromatic content, moderate solvency, uniform volatility, and no residue. This report focuses on its in-depth applications, practical processes, and market advantages in Turkiye’s cleaning industry, which is closely linked to the country’s key industrial chains such as automotive manufacturing, metal processing, and electronics.
Industrial cleaning is the core application scenario of Isoparaffin H in Turkiye, closely matching the country’s pillar industries such as automotive manufacturing and metal processing, with concentrated demand in industrial clusters such as Istanbul and Kocaeli.
As one of the largest metal processing bases in Central and Eastern Europe, Turkiye has massive demand for degreasing and cleaning of metal parts. Used as quickly dissolves mineral oil and synthetic oil, leaves no residue after volatilization, and does not affect subsequent processes such as electroplating, spraying, and welding, Isoparaffin H is mainly used for:
- Cleaning of cutting oil, drawing oil, and stamping oil on metal workpieces.
- Degreasing of bearings, gears, shafts, fasteners, die-cast aluminum, zinc, and copper alloys.
2. Automotive Parts Cleaning
Turkiye is the 5th largest automobile producer in Europe, with a complete automotive industrial chain. Istanbul, Kocaeli, and Bursa are the main cities of the automotive industry belt. Isoparaffin H is widely used by Tier 1 suppliers of automakers in these industries:
- Cleaning of engine parts, gearbox components, steering system, and braking system parts.
- Degreasing of aluminum die-castings and stamping parts.
3. Precision Cleaning (High-End Market)
With the rapid development of Turkiye’s electronics, optics, and medical industries, the demand for precision cleaning is growing. Isoparaffin H, with its high purity and no residue, has become the mainstream solvent in this field.
3.1 Electronics Industry Cleaning
Turkiye’s electronics manufacturing industry is developing rapidly, and Isoparaffin H is mainly used for:
- Cleaning of PCB assemblies, connectors, terminals, sensors, and relays.
- Degreasing of electronic pins and lead frames.
3.2 Optical and Precision Instrument Cleaning
It is suitable for cleaning lens assemblies, metal structures of optical instruments, small medical equipment parts, and watch parts. The core advantage is that it volatilizes completely, leaving no watermarks or oil films, which is essential for maintaining the accuracy and clarity of precision instruments.
Isoparaffin H has become the environmentally friendly hydrocarbon solvent for industrial and precision cleaning in Turkiye. It is mainly used for degreasing, oil removal, ultrasonic cleaning, and vapor cleaning of metal processing parts, automotive components, electronic components, optical devices, aerospace and medical parts. Its market demand will continue to grow with the upgrading of Turkiye’s manufacturing industry.
