Scalgun-a is used at low temperatures and low concentrations and does not give rise to scale or sludge nor does it generate fumes in working environment.

A uniform matt finish is produced over a wide concentration range with a low level of metal removal.

Application :
Scalgun-a is most suitable for pre-treatments before chromatising as it performs three functions simultaneously mainly that of degreasing, etching and desmutting. Chromate coatings thus produced after pretreatment with scalgun-a are uniform and adherent.

Scalgun-a is most suitable by dipping process. It is to be used in plastic tank or container.

The following parameters should be followed. Exact parameters should be set after trials.


Control & maintenance :

1. Fresh addition of scalgun-a should be made daily to maintain strength of solution by titration procedure
2. Fresh bath should be prepared only when there is excess build-up of soils from heavily oiled surfaces, or when normal additions does not restore original rate
3. Oil floating on top should be skimmed off daily
4. Solution should be desludged / filtered once every 3-4 weeks
5. Stir/agitate the solution everyday before starting to process

Precautions :

1. Avoid contact with skin, eyes & clothing
