Is the CAIG DeOxIT D100 harmful to plastics or rubber?

I have put it in circuit boards, plastic terminals, battery terminals, CPU pins and use the aerosol form to spray entire wiring harnesses with no detrimental effects on and plastic or synthetic materials. I have also sprayed inside switches and potentiometers with terrific results. If it has contacts or mechanical electrical connections, CAIG DeOxit D100 is a necessity.

If you are cleaning switches or similar electronic components you should not bathe the entire component in this (or other similar) cleaners as it may permeate the phenolic or switch non-conducting material and ruin the device. A little dab on the metal contact area (switch tab, pot wiper, etc.) will suffice.

DeOxit D100 is safe for plastics. Rubber is not mentioned on the label but I use it on all insulators and have not seen any problems. It is an amazing product.

So far plastics are okay. Rubber I am not sure. Some pieces get "greasy" but no damage on things similar to rubber

Rubber, it breaks down rubber (I think most plastics are inert) but it doesn't change the answer. Nope, don't use it

Hmm. Great question. Nope. There is no information as to toxicity on the label. As this plastic seems to be infinitely remold-able I doubt that there is any out-gassing happening. The product is not soluble in the human body. The only danger I can see would be of choking/blockage so I would not want to swallow a hot/warm glob of this product. Children need to be supervised when using ThermoMorph due to the high temperature needed to mold the product.

I honestly don't know. In doing some research, I found other manufacturers also advertising "Eco-PVC" mats which supposedly are dioxin and pthalate-free although I could not find any technical information on the internet to support such a claim. While I am aware of the health concerns with PVC, I detox and cleanse regularly so when comparing the price of this mat to others of similar material and build, the cost savings outweighed any potential issues. A friend/yoga teacher who recommended I look at a jute mat paid over $70 for each of her mats and they look almost identical to this one. My only recommendation would be to contact the seller with your concern.

I would not use it on anything where it can touch plastic. It may not affect it immediately, but this product, while excellent for cleaning actually metal electrical contacts is not the best for any contact with plastics. .. . . unless it is immediately flushed off with something like isopropyl alcohol. Even then. . . it might not be a good idea. Instead, try using something like Simple Green on a Q-tip and then follow that up with rinse.

Unfortunately, no. I could only take the company's word for it. Clear plastic like this often contain BPA. I'd think Audubon should be a responsible organization to provide safe products for birds.

The product label includes plastic as among the materials it can be used on. I certainly have used the product on keyboards and cell phones without any apparent problem.

I would say no . It has oils that are made for leather not plastic and rubber .

Yeah it's safe on plastics. It's hard to say whether it will help or not, but if you spray it around the edges of the button then press the button a bunch (and repeat a few times), you should get the cleaner inside the mechanism to do its stuff.

It's not plastic, its more like hard rubber. It does not feel cheap, if that's what you are asking. Unfortunately, I have not observed startlingly obvious results that others seem to have.

We don't know; you could try it. If you're concerned about carcinogens in the plastic, suggest you inquire of the manufacturer about that.

I would use caution if your gonna use it on paint, because it might strip the paint off. I would try dabbing the isopropyl alcohol on a rag first. With plastic and rubber it should be safe just make sure you check the plastic number to identify the strength of the plastic, because some plastics are more likely to leak than others.

The risk of leaching chemicals like BPA occurs when plastics are heated. This diffuser remains cool, colder than room temperature, therefore I wouldn't worry about what kind of plastic it is made with. Also just to clarify, just because something is BPA free doesn't mean it is safe. Every type of plastic leaches harmful chemicals. There have been a lot of studies done on BPA so it is most widely known. The other compounds that make up plastic are just untested. Who knows, maybe they are even more toxic! Try to use glass when you can, but I wouldn't worry about it in this case.

Burning plastic is harmful. I think the scientific community will verify this more than a seller.

Use Mineral Spirits. Laquer thinner is BAD stuff on some plastics and nervous systems

The material is our ecoFLEX® Composite made from recycled polymers and reclaimed wood fibers. It is 100% non-toxic and will not harm any animals that come in contact with it or happen to chew on it or even ingest any particles.We have an independent outside lab report to support this claim if you'd like it. If so please email us at cs at clickhere2shop dot com. Thank you, and let us know if you have further questions.

This product is made of ABS and PVC which are non toxic, body safe and phthalate free materials. It is safer to use a water based lubricant with this device
