Ultrasonic Cleaning of Stainless Steel
Q. We are considering using a Liquinox solution for our cleaning needs. We will be cleaning stainless steel from the residues of oils etc. We will be cleaning using an ultrasonic bath. Can you recommend a concentration, time and temperature?
Environmental Considerations on Cleaning Products
When selecting a detergent, considerations for safe environmental cleaning products include concern over volatile solvents with ozone-depleting potential and volatile-organic compound content that is regulated by The Clean Air Act Amendments.
Critical Cleaning Detergent Testing
Q. What kinds of test soils are used in detergent testing? A. Synthetic soils are often applied to coupons to use in testing critical cleaning detergents. The synthetic soil mimics the actual residue to be cleaned.
Filter Cleaning Wine Residue
Q. What kind of cleaning can I expect from Tergazyme when cleaning filters with wine residues? A. We would expect Tergazyme to work very well on biofilms or microbial contamination from filters that had been repeatedly used to filter wine.
Fingerprints on Glass and Aluminum
Q. How do you clean fingerprints on glass and aluminum?
A. Fingerprints on bare aluminum that has been polished or abraided in a way that damages the protective oxide layer will potentially etch the aluminum and leave a hard to remove fingerprint. The same thing happens with lime-soda glass (window glass, as distinguished from the more robust borosilicate glass found in lab glassware) where a fingerprint can eat into the glass and etch in a hard to remove fingerprint.
