Overview

It is used for immersion (dipping) application & non-reachable areas of Stainless Steel

Product description

RXSOL Pickling Liquid - Performs multiple cleaning action such as degreaser by removing oil effectively and also providing protective coating to keep rust free surface. Uses of Pickling liquid RXSOL helps to keep metal surface as priming after welding which can be used for Electrostatic Painting and powder coating.  Also Uses of Pickling Liquid RXSOL helps to eliminate uses of all hazardous chemicals such as solvent, Acid, Phophate, Chromate etc. And its uses also helps to avoid sand scrubbing, blassting for metal surface preparation.

Applications

The Pickling Dip Liquid  fluid is recommended for immersion pickling of small objects and for pickling surfaces that are time-consuming to brush or spray pickle. It can also be used for circulation pickling of pipe systems. Pickling Liquid reduced the Re-work to Zero, saving a lot of labor, time & cost.

Where it is used

Pickling Dip Liquid is Water based Conversion coating, Rust/Heat scale remover, Rust inhibitor, & Recommended Use Rust converter, Effectively used for Weld prep., Anti-spatter and a complete metal surface preparation/pre-treatment compound for ferrous & non-ferrous metal. 

Pickling Dip Liquid Savings:
1) “Value Added Product” which Saves a lot of labor, time, cost & energy by eliminating one or more traditional steps during metal surface preparation for welding and finishing (priming, painting, powder coating etc.)
2) Very large coverage (around 1600 sq. ft. per gallon
3) Unit Cost is few cents per sq. ft. along with a very less labor time. 
4) Long Shelf Life – No Wastage
5) Solves all quality failures such as, Welding failure, Adhesion failure as well as solving the Rusting problem completely. 

Industries and related products

THE UNIT COST FOR THE PRODUCT IS FEW CENTS PER SQ. FT., BUT THE ACTUAL PRODUCT COST COMES OUT BELOW ZERO AFTER USE, BECAUSE OF ELIMINATING ONE OR MORE TRADITIONAL PROCESS STEPS. 


BENEFIT of Pickling Dip Liquid : 

1) Complete Rust Removal on any Metal surface (Ferrous and Non-ferrous metal)
2) Long term Indoor Rust Protection (for several years)
3) Welding, including welding on Hot rolled steel without removing the Mill scale
4) Priming, Painting, Electrostatic painting, Powder coating, Epoxy coating, Ceramic coating etc.
5) Metal surface preparation for High Temperature coating, such as Epoxy Coating (oven temperature around 500°F), Ceramic coating (baking temperature around 1800°F) etc.
6) One Step De-scaling/Coating of Hot Rolled steel (mill scale) & Heat scale at room temperature.
7) Used for metal surface preparation of New metal as well as for re-painting jobs after blasting (maintenance)
8) Injection Molding – For Die manufacturers as well as Injection molding companies (both Plastic & Metal)
9) STAINLESS STEEL PASSIVATION: Complete SS passivation of Stainless Steel by a dipping process at room temperature or in heated condition (to speed up process), with Zero Waste disposal. Replaces Nitric Acid Passivation Process.
10) Rebar Coating: New Rebar can be de-scaled/condition/pickle/coated/sealed by Pickling dip Liquid Picklex in one step for better corrosion resistance during storage and also inside concrete.

Dosage

Standard grades, such as 304 and 316: Mix 1 part Pickling Dip Liquid   into 3 patrs of water. A further dilution can be done if longer pickling timesc an be accepted. High-alloyed grades, such as duplex grades (2205) and austenitic grades (904 L) for use in severe corrosive conditions: Mix 1 part of Pickling Dip Liquid in to 2 parts of water. Very high alloyed grades, such as super-austenitic (254 SMO) and super-duplex (2507) grades: Mix 1 part of Pickling Dip Liquid into 1 part of water.

1. Before first time use. Make the solution by adding the Pickling Dip Liquid  to the water, not the other way round! The proportions depend  on the steel to be pickled.

2. Pre-clean the objects to remove grease and oil before pickling by using RXSOL DEGREASER.

3. Place the product in the pickling bath.

4. Allow sufficient pickling time. Use 5 min to 4 hours depending on temperature, steel grade, condition of the Pickling Dip Liquid    etc.

5. Rinse with high-pressure water jet after pickling.

6. Analyse the Pickling Dip Liquid  content of acids and free metals regularly to maintain optimal Pickling Dip Liquid composition.

Using Procedure

Stainless Steel Grade Examples Dilution Ratio (Pickling Dip Liquid : Water) Notes
Standard Grades 304, 316 1 : 3 Can be further diluted if longer pickling time is acceptable
High-Alloyed Grades Duplex (2205), Austenitic (904L) 1 : 2 Suitable for severe corrosive conditions
Very High Alloyed Grades Super-Austenitic (254 SMO), Super-Duplex (2507) 1 : 1 For extremely demanding corrosive environments

Also known as

Picklex 20

Notes

Features & Benefit :

  • Restores stainless steel surfaces that have been damaged during fabrication operations such as welding, forming, cutting and blasting. It removes weld oxides, the underlying chromium-depleted layer and other defects that may cause local corrosion.
     
  • Working life; the bath fluid is consumed during usage and the effective working life of the bath fluid is determined by the amount of acids and dissolved metals. The bath fluid should hence be analysed regularly, and new acid should be added when needed in order to obtain an optimal pickling result. Avesta Finishing Chemicals may assist with this analysis service.

Storage:

Pickling Dip Liquid should be stored indoors at room temperature. Containers must be kept properly closed, in an upright position and inaccessible to unauthorised persons. The products are perishable and should not be kept in storage longer than necessary. They have a maximum shelf life of two years when stored at room temperature. Exposure to higher temperatures may reduce shelf life

Handling :

Protective clothing. In general users should wear acid-resistant overalls, gloves and rubber boots. Face visor should be used and, if necessary, suitable respiratory protective devices. Special conditions may apply from one country to another. Refer our Material Safety Data Sheets.

Remarks

MATERIALS AND CONDITIONS TO AVOID INCOMPATIBILITY : Caustics, Amines, Alkanolamines, Aldehydes, strong Oxidizing agents and Chlorinated compounds.
