Plastic and Metal Cleaning for Precision Manufacturing
 

From passivation and cleaning stainless steel to metal cleaning stampings and castings, Alconox detergents give a precision clean without the use and disposal of hazardous solvents or strong acids.

Wherever surfaces need preparation for coating, bonding, reflecting, or processing, Alconox Inc. has been providing detergents for plastic, stainless steel, and metal cleaning since 1946:

  • Alconox: For ultrasonic removal of oils and particulates.
  • Citrajet: Low-foaming enhanced acid for safer cleaning of metal oxides.
  • Citranox: enhanced acid for safer cleaning of metal oxides.
  • Detojet: Heavy duty degreaser for machine washers.
  • Luminox: Neutral pH non-foaming aluminum cleaner.

Before: Brass forgings corrode and lose their bright appearance unless they are bright-dipped.

After: Citranox cleans, removes corrosion, and brightens metal surfaces without disposal problems associated with solvents.
