The surfactants in the formula complete the product by providing cleansing and imbibition actions. Detar Acid ASF can be used to eliminate inorganic matter left behind after either alkaline cleaning cycles or production processes. The cleaning power of Detar Acid ASF is particularly suitable for removing fatty and protein residues (albumins and whey proteins).

Detar Acid ASF can be used on stainless steel surfaces and on plastics.
