Zerust®/Excor® AxxaWash™ NW-12C removes oily contaminants and deactivates corrosion-inducing inorganic anions to provide robust postwash flash corrosion inhibition for up to 72 hours. Cleaning with the wash solution enhances the effectiveness of future corrosion prevention methods such as RP coatings and VCI film. In addition, it is silicate and phosphate-free and readily biodegradable. Zerust® AxxaWash™ NW-12C is a mildly alkaline, aqueous-based cleaning agent that can be used in immersion, ultrasonic, and low to ultra-high pressure (UHP) spray cleaning modes. Ideal for use following common metalworking processes or in pre-cleaning lines for electroplating, metallic, and non-metallic coating processes. The product is conveniently offered as a liquid concentrate and may be diluted per the application.
