Notes

(1) No Xylene in the pre-degreaser which is better for on-site worker’s health.

(2) Maximize water agitation and overflow in the rinse 1 tank to drain off the metal surface oils. Without ultrasonic cleaning equipment and extra rinse
2 tank, air-pumping from compressor in the tank is also helpful for this single rinsing step.

(3) Additive a and b are used to intensify degreasing power for better cleaning of metal substrate.

(4) To maintain highly-efficient performance of each chemical tank, regular replenishment and periodic rebuild-up is strongly suggested.

(5) A proper modification on the equipment for better racking of goods is also helpful. Otherwise, inefficient cleaning may occur on the goods in the
middle of racking.

(6) Good RO water quality is also helpful for the whole phosphating process.

(7) Please use our testing agent for titration to prevent reading deviation.

Notes

(1) For the current process, it is not recommended to rinse the goods which have been phosphated in the rinse 2 tank.

(2) Please try the new process which should be of higher stability and better efficiency.

(3) Replace with fresh water in the rinse 1, rinse 2 and rinse 3 tanks regularly.

(4) Without agitation, move the rack by crane ups and downs for better degreasing.

(5) Please use our testing agent for titration to prevent reading deviation.

Notes

(1) Environmental-friendly process with reduced cost of little waste.

(2) Easier control and more stable process.

(3) Iron/Aluminum processing on the same line is feasible.

(4) First trial goods failed to meet the salt and boiling tests. Possible cause is likely to be the poor water quality which contains too many impurities
such as metal ions, chloride and sulfides.

(5) Chemical samples for second trial will be delivered along with the next phosphate order.

(6) Second Eco trial will be conducted once the RO water quality is improved.
