Description
The preliminary degreasing is one of the most important procedures during the surface treatment of metals. The large number of drilling and grinding emulsions, drawing greases, anticorrosive agents and metal working fluids a.s.o. entering the bath require degreasing agents with a broad spectrum of efficiency. Our KEBOSOL 2000 has been developed especially for this application purpose.
KEBOSOL 2000 is a highly efficient degreasing agent having an inhibiting effect at the same time for the protection of metallic materials in hydrochloric acid at temperatures up to 35°C. Grease and oil films adhering to the metal surface are liquified whereby the viscosity is considerably reduced. These adsorptively bound molecular oil and grease film is displaced by the surfactants contained in KEBOSOL 2000. The degreasing effect and duration depend on the concentration of hydrochloric acid and iron. The quantity of oil and fat enriching in a degreasing bath resp. being separated is decisively dependent on the state of greasing of the delivered parts, i.e. on the fat and oil portion per m² surface.
Benefits
- A highly concentrated liquid compound of wetting agent and inhibitor quickly and homogenously dispersing in diluted acids. The liquid form allows an easy dosing of the product.
- To obtain an optimum efficiency KEBOSOL 2000 should be applied in connection with an oil separating device only: oil separator, scimming off a.s.o.
- The acid degreasing bath can be used up to 1 - 2 % free hydrochloric acid.
- In this case the acid losses are replaced by fresh hydrochloric acid whereby an acid concentration of 8 % should not be exceeded. The bath is exhausted at an iron content of approx. 120 g/l.
- Disposes of an excellent emulsification for a short period of time for grease, mineral oils and paraffins which ensures a quick separation of oil and grease.
Dosing, Addition
KEBOSOL 2000 is directly added to acid solutions. The consumption is dependent on the degree of contamination (grease and oil).
- in case of normal or minor contamination with oil and grease 0.5 % = 5 kg KEBOSOL 2000 / m3
- in case of considerable contamination with oil and grease 1 - 2 % = 10 - 20 kg KEBOSOL 2000 / m3

The products shown on our website are only a selection of our entire product range. There is no universal remedy for the rapid removal of impurities. Some can be removed well with alkaline agents, others better in the acidic range. The large variety of conceivable cleaning problems and the large number of additives, inhibitors and ready-to-use cleaning solutions offered by us make it advisable to obtain detailed advice before starting cleaning.
The same applies to inhibitors, defoamers, scale preventers, corrosion inhibitors, pickling inhibitors, etc. Depending on the plant, material, product and the type of boiler/cooling water is used, different individual challenges arise. We are well equipped for them.
