Arkema's Methanesulfonic Acid-based cleaner Scaleva™, provides the optimal combination of properties for use in hard surface industrial cleaning solutions and removal of lime and metallic (iron) scales (descaling applications). The following outlines the results of Arkema studies on its use in cleaning applications for the brewery and dairy industries.
Strong acidity
Promotes a quick reaction on carbonate and oxide scales
High solubility salts
Enhanced dissolution allows better rinsing step without traces of salts
Non-foaming and non-hydrotype
Combines with cationic, anionic or non-ionic surfactants.
Stable with most oxidizing agents
Formulates easily with H2O2 for a disinfecting effect
Non-oxidizing
Minimized degradation of other formulation components
Low corrosivity to metals versus other acids
Less damage to pipes and fixtures
Low toxicity and ecotoxicity
Diluted solutions safe for discharge to waste treatment facilities
Arkema's Scaleva™ is a low-toxicity, environmentally friendly solvent for the following applications:
Hard surface cleaning/rust remover
Acid base detergent
Degreasing
Concrete, dairy and brewery cleaning
Scaleva™ is miscible in water and commonly used in the following industries: cheese, milk, brewery, sanitization, industrial cleaning, pharmaceuticals and cosmetics.
