Trial Purpose:
Laboratory evaluations of alternative cleaning products
Date Run:
02/11/2002Experiment Procedure:
Basic cleaning performance testing was conducted using ASTM G122 as the bases for cleaning.
1. Buffing compound - The Lea Manufacturing Company Learok 2-B-111 - Abrasive, Fatty acids, Glycerides and petroleum wax/oil mix-silica dust (14808-60-7)
2. Grease - Elf Lubricants, Keystone KSL-111 Synthetic Tacky Grease (64742-478, 8052-42-4)
3. Lubricant - ITW Devkon Safetap stick, grinding lubricant, contains TSRK 80100221-5000P, TSRK 80100221-5001P, TSRK 80100221-5002P
Success Rating:
Preliminary compatibility tests on substrate coupons encouraging for at least one cleaning chemistry. More in-depth laboratory testing necessary.Conclusion:
For cleaning grease with Watson Formula 7300- ultrasonic was found to be the most effective.
