Is stable in strong alkaline conditions up to pH 14; Is stable with up to 2 - 4% caustic depending on the level of electrolytes in the system; Is stable in acidic conditions such as hydrochloric, phosphoric or methanesulfonic acids; Is stable with all types of complexing agents typically used in cleaning applications; Is compatible with nonionic and cationic surfactants and selectively compatible with anionic surfactants; Is a medium foam surfactant (foam height according to Ross-Miles, 50°C, 0.05%: immediately: 32 mm after 5 min: 3 mm)
- HIGHLIGHTS
Berol® R648 NG is an excellent hydrotrope and degreasing booster, effective at very low concentrations. An industry-leading and readily biodegradable cosurfactant, the unique chemistry of Berol R648 NG upgrades the cleaning performance of your formulations ranging from household cleaners to the most demanding industrial degreasers.; The degreasing effect of the test formulations was assessed on a white painted metal plate soiled uniformly with a tough-to-clean greasy soil collectedfrom a train engine.; The cleaning formulation was applied simply by pouring it over the surface (non-mechanical cleaning). After a short time interval, the whole plate was rinsed with tap water and cleaning performance was assessed quantitatively.
