Cleaning Additives

Cleaning additives from Chemetall improve performance of surface cleaners. They help your surfaces be as clean as they need to be.

Chem Add 6020 is a highly-effective, pH-neutral, liquid product that supplements the ability of alkaline and acidic cleaning products to remove organic soils such as oils and greases. It can be added to iron phosphate solutions to improve cleaning effectiveness and the uniformity of the phosphate coatings. Chem Add 6020 can be used in both spray and immersion processes.
Chem Add 6036 is a highly-concentrated, moderately-alkaline liquid product that supplements the ability of alkaline cleaning products to remove organic soils such as oils and greases. Chem Add 6036 is also effective at improving drawing compound and chlorinated paraffin removal. An effective oil splitter, Chem Add 6036 can be used in both spray and immersion processes.
Chem Add 6501 is a highly-concentrated, pH-neutral, liquid product that supplements the ability of alkaline cleaning products to remove organic soils such as oils and greases. It is also an effective oil splitter. Chem Add 6501 is effective at knocking down existing foam and preventing it from returning, even in high pressure spray applications.
Enhance is a liquid additive designed to improve the performance of primary cleaning solutions. Suitable for use with alkaline, moderately acidic, or water-miscible solvent materials, in spray washers or immersion tanks, Enhance helps remove difficult soils such as oils, grease, drawing compounds and shop soils that might normally require impractical and costly increases in time, temperature or concentration of the base cleaning material. A real energy-saver, Enhance permits removal of difficult soils at reduced temperatures. Enhance is particularly useful as an additive to detergent iron phosphating materials, substantially improving cleaning results.
Gardoond Additive H 4576, formerly 200-569-001, is a highly concentrated liquid product that supplements the cleaning abilty of alkaline, acid or neutral cleaning programs. Low foaming at elevated temperatures, Gardobond Additive H 4576 can be used in recirculating spray washers, immersion washers or ultrasonic washers. Gardobond Additive H 4576 is safe to use on ferrous, aluminum and galvanized substrates.
Gardobond Additive H 7050 is a liquid, neutral-pH, organic accelerator for spray and immersion zinc phosphate and manganese phosphate processes. Use of Gardobond Additive H 7050 has the following advantages:
  • Reduced processing time, up to 50%, for manganese phosphate
  • Finer crystals
  • Less sludge
  • Softer scale
  • Wider, more flexible operating parameters
  • More stable in process solution — Does not degrade quickly in the phosphate bath like nitrite
  • Energy Savings — Lower phosphate temperature is possible
Form: Liquid
Apply by: Spray
LADD is a cleaning and foam-controlling additive for acidic or alkaline detergents to be used at low temperatures.
PC 10 is a liquid material, designed to inhibit sulfuric acid pickling solutions from attacking sound metal. By decreasing the iron build-up in the pickling bath, PC 10 reduces acid consumption by as much as 30% to 40%. By preventing overpickling, metal loss is reduced and the life of the acid bath is prolonged. Added to either hot or cold, batch or continuous sulfuric acid pickling solutions, PC 10 produces a controlled foam blanket which reduces fumes. Additionally, it assures better rinsing.
Rinsite is a liquid additive used in the final stages of metal cleaning and plating (and tumbling) operations to improve rinsing. It makes dry down uniform, eliminates water spotting and tarnishing, and retains the bright finish of the metal. It leaves an invisible, non-oily film to retard rusting.
Stripper Additive is a chelated liquid additive formulated to boost the penetrating power of alkaline paint stripping solutions and extend their working life. It has the same effect on heavy-duty cleaning solutions used to remove tough soils from automotive parts. As an additive to straight caustic for etching aluminum, Stripper Additive prevents scale build-up.
