When foaming from your cleaner is a concern or for applications utilizing enclosed spray wash cabinets, Conomerse BG-NF is your answer. While BG-NF has many of the characteristics of Conomerse BG, the major change is in its low-to-no foaming property. One of the surfactants in Conomerse BG-NF was changed to eliminate foaming, making BG-NF the perfect choice to use in "closed loop" applications.
Conomerse BG-NF will not foam at temperatures of 120 deg.F. or above and will inhibit foam formation from soils. Conomerse BG-NF does not emulsify and after standing without agitation for several hours the oils and greases are allowed to rise to the surface where they can be skimmed off and the particulate material will go to the bottom. A larger percentage in the contaminants will rise to the surface if the heat if also removed. In addition to removal of much of the contaminants, this also helps keep the bath clean thereby extending the life of the solution.
Conomerse BG-NF is composed of non-ionic surfactants, anionic surfactants, inorganic builders synthetic detergents, and a glycol ether solvent. All ingredients of Conomerse BG-NF appear on the list prepared by the Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency TSC Act PL94-469. Conomerse BG-NF is 99.3% phosphate free and is not formulated with any of the chemicals listed in 40 CFR 261.
Conomerse BG-NF contains absolutely NO silicone defoamers and is completely free-rinsing, which is essential for any post cleaning operation such as painting or phosphatizing. It does not contain any metal or metal compounds, no halogenated hydrocarbons, no chlorinated hydrocarbons, no aromatic carbon compounds and no amines or nitrates.
Conomerse BG-NF is highly concentrated and in most applications with good pressure, a 2% solution is satisfactory (2 gals. BG-NF to 100 gals. water). For heavy soil, a 4% solution will be sufficient to clean. Also, the better the agitation and/or pressure the better the cleaning efficiency.
Many tests have been done with Conomerse BG-NF. ARP 1755, which tests various metals and ASTM F495 are just two such tests. Copies of these and other tests are available upon request.
