Advanced Cleaning Mechanisms: Different Ways Detergents Clean
We are running some cleaning trials with several of your detergents in our lab on a difficult to remove resin. There was no indication of solvating with solid flakes and particles of resin crashing to bottom. Can you provide an alternative detergent? Detergents are a synergistic blend of several cleaning ingredients (as opposed to soap). Ways detergents clean therefore….
Running SIP After Cleaning
Q: We are using Tergazyme to control biofilm residues. Works great. Can you think of any issues that might arise if we run a steam/pressure “kill cycle” after cleaning with the Tergazyme cycle is completed?
A: Tergazyme® Enzyme-Active Powdered Detergent is an excellent part of a biofilm control regimen. A thorough rinse will leave no residue left behind to speak of that might interact with your SIP kill cycle. After all,
Cleaning Steel Parts for Battle Reenactment
Q: We reenact Civil War battles and need to clean the bayonets, rifles and assorted other metal parts. We came across Alconox as a source for safely cleaning these important pieces. The residues are largely rust and pine tar. What would you recommend?
A: Cleaning steel used in reenactments as you describe certainly helps in establishing the proper setting for the show. Cleaning tool steel (also called mild steel) requires a little bit of effort to ensure flash rusting does not occur during rinsing. To avoid this….

3D Printing: Cleaning Residues on Complex Geometries
The technique of 3D printing, also known as additive manufacturing, allows for the production of complex geometries, both metallic and polymer, that a few years ago designers could only dream of. However, these geometries present some post printing issues that impede the rapid production times that makes additive manufacturing attractive. One of these issues is the removal of trapped metal powder from these tight features, channels and porosity of these complex geometries.
