Henkel Corporation has introduced an energy saving, low-temperature cleaner, Bonderite® Ridoline RT-153™, designed to be compatible with both phosphate and phosphate-free conversion coating technologies. Formulated for use with phosphate-free nanotechnologies such as Bonderite® NT-1™ and Bonderite® TecTalis™, the new cleaner can also be used on zinc, iron and magnesium phosphate metal pre-treatment processes.
Water-based and solvent-free, Bonderite® Ridoline RT-153™ is sprayed onto aluminum, hot-dip galvanized steel or electrogalvanized steel surfaces at room temperature, reducing energy requirements during the pre-treatment process. This strongly alkaline cleaner is robust enough to run at temperatures up to 140ºF if required for cleaning heavily soiled metals.
Suitable for use on all metal substrates, Bonderite® Ridoline RT-153™ is available in pails, drums, returnable totes, non-returnable totes and bulk tankers. This product can be easily incorporated into existing manufacturing processes and is compatible with all commonly-used powder and wet paint systems.
