| NOVASOL C | Liquid cleaner to be used at room temperature consisting of a mixture of neutral solvents with a clear appearance. It dissolves oils and greases and, since it is not emulsifiable with water, it separates the removed dirt. The product is not flammable at temperatures below 68°C and does not attack metallic materials, glass, fabrics, acrylic products, enamels, and most plastics. To be used with Lapen P | 100 % | COLD | YES | YES | YES | YES | YES | YES |
Industrial degreasing: additives and liquid detergents for metal degreasing
The process of industrial degreasing is a critical stage that can determine the quality of the washing of mechanical components. An oily residue not removed can compromise a weld, a dirt particle can jam an engine, and a surface not perfectly passivated can oxidize within hours. Choosing the right detergent is not just a minor detail, but a fundamental parameter of the production process.
For this reason, Teknox offers targeted consulting to identify the perfect engine degreaser for each specific application, balancing cleaning effectiveness, respect for materials and safety for operators.
Degreasing detergents for parts washers are necessary to remove oily contaminants and processing residues from metal components during the industrial washing process and eliminate:
- Operating and cutting oils.
- Fats and lubricants.
- Residues of chips and metal particles.
- Abrasive pastes and grinding residues.
- Industrial dirt and surface contamination.
- Temporary anticorrosion protectors.
Use of a good degreasing detergent is essential to ensure optimal results and to extend the life of the equipment, as well as:
- Guarantee perfectly clean parts before assembly, painting or surface treatments.
- Avoid assembly defects or subsequent work.
- Improve the quality and reliability of the final product.
- Reduce waste and rework.
- Protect the system and optimize the washing process.
The Teknox range: complete solutions for mechanical parts cleaning
Our chemical offer covers the entire spectrum of industrial needs, with concentrated formulations ensuring high yield and a reduction in management and disposal costs.
Degreasing detergents for high-temperature washing
Products like the NEW 105 detergent for degreasing in hot automatic machines are designed to operate at high temperatures and remove stubborn contaminants. Main characteristics include:
- Foam Control: they operate effectively even at high pressures without generating unwanted foam.
- Temporary Protection: leaves a passivating film that protects the parts from rust between one phase and another of the process.
Versatility: some formulations are universal and suitable for washing both iron and aluminium without risk.
Neutral and moderate pH degreasers
For delicate applications or where water discharge requires less aggressive parameters, we propose solutions like the 545 or ADD-SGX. These products are ideal for the degreasing of mechanical components of precision, turned brass small parts or aerospace components where surface integrity is a priority. Despite the neutral pH, the advanced surfactant technology guarantees a high degreasing power.
Sustainability and efficiency: the added value of Teknox detergents
In the modern industrial landscape, effectiveness is not the only parameter. Environmental sustainability and operator safety are central. Our products for industrial degreasing are developed with a keen focus on environmental impact.
Our formulations of degreasing liquids are designed to operate at reduced concentrations (often between 1% and 5%), dramatically reducing the quantity of chemical product to purchase, store, and dispose of. Moreover, many of our parts washer degreasers operate effectively at lower temperatures (starting from 40°C), allowing a significant energy saving on heating the washing bath.
The use of biodegradable surfactants and the absence of volatile harmful compounds make the working environment healthier, eliminating the risks associated with old chlorinated solvents or traditional diluters. Choosing a TEKNOX engine degreaser also means investing in environmental sustainability and compliance with current regulations.
