Metal Cleaning

Cleaning is an integral and critical element of the value chain within many industrial manufacturing processes be it parts or equipment. The contamination could be process oils, dirt, rust, or paints. The cleaning effect is dependent on variable factors – time, temperature, agitation, and cleaning chemical type & concentration.

Intermediate cleaning of parts is becoming more and more essential to many industrial processes, as a prelude to painting, plating, phosphating, assembly, welding, rust protection & packaging. With the new BS-VI emission norms cleaning in various technologies like LATEST SURFACTANT TECHNOLOGY in X-CLEAN™ water-based cleaners & DEAROMATIZED DEWATERING TECHNOLOGY in hydrocarbon cleaners can effectively eliminate part contamination. Maintaining an aqueous cleaner bath even at high pressure without foaming is possible with better fluid dynamics. Easing the 5S maintenance in the shop floor. The key differentiator in such cleaners is also corrosion protection properties & compatibility with part metallurgy.

Rust cleaning or removal is a challenge across industries. Mechanical methods are labour intensive & chemical processes are usually hazardous. EHS safe and easy to use CHELATING TECHNOLOGY based RUST REVENGE® can easily remove rust by simple dipping method.

  • RUST REVENGE® Rust Remover – RUST REVENGE® is a non-hazardous, ready-to-use, water-based rust remover based on chelating technology. It removes surface rust from ferrous metals using a neutral pH solution without harsh chemicals. Simply immerse the rusted part, and rust disappears within 30 minutes to a few hours.

  • X-CLEAN™ Advanced Aqueous Cleaners – X-CLEAN™ is a range of water-based cleaners using Latest Surfactant Technology, capable of removing both ionic and non-ionic contaminants from parts and components. Available in acidic, neutral, or alkaline formulations, suitable for use on various metals, plastics, and other materials.
