Detergents

Aqueous cleaning detergents are vital to the effectiveness of ultrasonic washers, spray washers, and other water-based cleaning systems. These specialized formulations break down oils, grease, and contaminants while reducing surface tension, ensuring thorough cleaning even on intricate or sensitive surfaces.

Detergents optimize the cleaning process by emulsifying residues, suspending particulate, and preventing corrosion, making them indispensable for maintaining quality and extending equipment life. Tailored for various materials, these solutions meet the demands of industries requiring precision and reliability.

Complementing cleaning detergents, passivation chemistries like nitric and citric acid protect metal surfaces by removing impurities and creating a corrosion-resistant layer. Together, detergents and passivation solutions provide a complete approach to achieving cleanliness and durability in industrial applications.
