SAFE ACID NF
A NON FOAMING
ORGANIC ACID BASED CLEANER
PHOSPHATE FREE
DESCRIPTION
SAFE ACID NF is a concentrated phosphate-free organic acid cleaner. This chemical will efficiently remove mineral deposits. It is extremely good for cleaning in place.
APPLICATION
SAFE ACID NF is used at a concentration of 0.5-5.0% (5 mL/L to 50
mL/L for cleaning in place.
A concentration of 5.0% (50 mL/L ; 6.4 oz/gal) is recommended for
manual cleaning.
Temperatures in excess of 50ºC should be avoided when using this chemical.
PROPERTIES
Appearance: Clear liquid
pH (1% solution): 3.00±1.00
Specific gravity @ 25°C: 1.120±0.050
INGREDIENTS
Contains: citric acid, urea- monohydrochloride and urea-sulfate
DESCRIPTION:
SAFE ACID NF is a low pH organic salt that is used to replace traditional strong corrosive acids. Our acid replacement technology is safe, non hazardous and biodegradable.
ADVANTAGES:
- 4 to 10 times more effective than citric and glycolic acid and 2 to 3 times more effective than phosphoric acid when dissolving calcium carbonate.
- High performance vs cost ratio compared to phosphoric and citric acids.
- Non-fuming, safer to handle and store.
- No solubility limits (ideal for concentrated cleaners).
- Classified as a mild skin irritant.
- Phosphate free thus eliminating the potential of eutrophication (algae blooming).
- Low contributor to BOD/COD in effluents.
- Approved for use in green seal and Canadian ecologo products.
- Contains no VOCs and no bleaching agents.
- Non-corrosive to skin, mild steel and most of surfaces.
- Approved by the US EPA as a non-food inert ingredient in biocide applications.
