A variety of aqueous chemistries for commercial and industrial cleaning applications
Aqueous chemistries are valued for their environmental and safety advantages and are widely used across different industries for a variety of applications. From automotive painting and powder-coating to commercial printing. Our selections include multi-purpose cleaners, carbon removers, alkaline liquid cleaners, paint gun cleaners, paint and ink remover, pressure spray cleaner and defoamer – available in a variety of sizes ranging from 5-gallon pails to 55-gallon drums. As in all aqueous chemistries, water is the primary solvent, making these products safer for workers and more environmentally friendly than other solvent alternatives.
As you browse our aqueous chemistries, look for these features:
We also carry a variety of other solvents and chemistries, including:
When choosing aqueous chemistries, it’s critical to consider the substrate. For example, aggressive alkaline liquid cleaner can be used on iron, steel, brass and copper (in some instances) but is not recommended for use on aluminum due to the high pH formulation. Our paint & ink remover is designed for commercial printing presses (litho, flexo, gravure, screen and other commercial presses) and can remove coating from steel, cast iron and aluminum. For baked-on carbon removal, our low-pH super cleaner performs like a caustic cleaner but without the use of caustics. It will attack and remove baked-on carbon from steel and soft metals, brightening the metal to a like-new condition. Please consult the technical information sections of our product pages to ensure choosing the right cleaning product for your industry/application.
What are aqueous chemistries?
Aqueous chemistries refer to chemical formulations or processes that primarily use water as the solvent or medium. These chemistries are often employed in various applications because they can be more environmentally friendly, safer, and cost-effective compared to those using organic solvents. Here are some key aspects of aqueous chemistries:
Key Aspects of Aqueous Chemistries
Water as a Solvent: In aqueous chemistries, water is the primary solvent. This can involve dissolving, dispersing, or suspending substances in water to create solutions or mixtures.
Environmental Benefits: Using water as a solvent reduces the reliance on volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and hazardous solvents. This can lead to lower emissions, reduced environmental pollution, and fewer health risks associated with solvent exposure.
Cleaning Products: Many modern cleaning agents use aqueous chemistries, including household cleaners, industrial degreasers, and car wash solutions. These products often use surfactants and other additives that are effective in water.
Safety and Handling: Aqueous chemistries are generally safer to handle compared to organic solvents. They often have lower flammability and toxicity profiles, which can make them easier to manage in both manufacturing and end-use applications.
Where can I find paint gun cleaner?
Our aqueous paint gun cleaner is formulated to remove uncured solvent-based paints from paint gun spray equipment, specifically in automotive body shops and industrial paint refinishing shops. It doesn’t require heat to work and is VOC compliant. Shop now.
Why do I need defoamer?
Our defoaming agent suppresses excess foam in aqueous cleaning baths. Our formula was designed to complement our aqueous cleaning solutions and won’t impact the performance of the cleaners. It is dispersible in water and flows well, has a neutral pH, with a very mild, non-irritating odor. Easy to use, just add to the bath at full strength.
