Aerosol Degreaser Versus Liquid Degreaser: How Do They Compare?

Degreasing is one of the most common cleaning operations that requires a specially formulated product that’s designed to cut grease and leave the material that is cleaned grease-free. Some companies choose to purchase degreaser in aerosol form, while other prefer to buy it in liquid form, and use it in spray bottles and/or hand wipe […]

Aerosol Flux Remover: When Should it be Used for Annealing Metal?

Annealing is a metallurgical process in which metal is heat treated to provide three primary effects: supplying the metal with increased ductility, softening the metal for machining processes, and homogenizing the metal’s microstructure to remove internal stresses that could cause the metal to crack or break during service. For some annealing practices, using aerosol flux […]

Non HAPs Alternatives: Tips for Choosing the Right Replacements

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) continually adds new chemicals to its list of hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) that was originally released in 1990. Chemicals that make the list have shown negative effects on the environment and/or human health. Consequently, their use is heavily regulated. This is why many companies proactively switch from cleaning solutions whose […]

Is there a Difference Between Critical Cleaning and Precision Cleaning?

In terms of the cleaning procedure, critical cleaning and precision cleaning share some important similarities. For example, both processes typically involve temperature consideration, the application of mechanical force to one degree or another, and the detergency or solvency of the cleaning solution. However, there also some important differences between critical cleaning and precision cleaning. Below, […]
