Industrial Degreasers

DEGREASERS

WHAT IS A DEGREASER?

A degreaser is a product that can dissolve and remove unwanted substances that are not soluble in water such as fats, oils, and grease. 

ARE ALL DEGREASERS THE SAME?

No.  Degreasers are designed for a target application.  For instance, a mild dish soap is a degreaser but you wouldn’t use it to degrease your car’s engine.  In choosing a degreaser, think of your application first, then find the degreaser that best matches that application.  Characteristics you may look for are:

Solvent or water based

Foaming or non foaming

Neutral, low or high alkalinity (PH)

Specific or broad range application

Domestic, commercial or Industrial

Your target:   Kitchen cleaning

 Automotive detailing

 Construction adhesives removal

Industrial equipment cleaning

Heavy equipment cleaning

HOW DO DEGREASERS WORK?  (Information for the nerd in you) 

Oils, fats and grease can be removed by using petroleum solvents.  However, petroleum solvents are often undesirable because they cannot be released to the environment, they can have serious health affects and are often flammable. 

What about using a water-based product?  You have heard the expression that oil and water do not mix.  So, trying to remove oils fats or grease with water does not work. – Until recently.  Surfactants enable a water-based solution to clean oil and grease.  Surfactants are made up of molecules with a complex organic chain with one hydrophobic end that attracts to oil and grease and one hydrophilic end that is attracted to water.  They can attach to oil and grease particles and carry them into a water solution.  

Other ingredients in a degreasing product can include chelating and sequestering agents.  These attach to metal ions and prevent them from precipitating.  In other words, they prevent the removed soils from re-attaching themselves to the cleaned surface. 

Inhibiters slow or prevent the degreaser from being corrosive to metals. 

Emulsifiers keep the soils suspended in the solution. 

PH builders boost the PH (alkalinity) of the degreaser to further aid the breakdown of oils and grease. 

Degreasers can be quite different from one another determined by the ingredients of the formulation and their respective concentrations.  

Nypower manufactures many different kinds of degreasers as you can see from above.  If you have a specific application need, we may be able to custom blend a formulation just for you.
