PureTech Scientific glycolic acid, previously manufactured by Chemours, is a versatile industrial liquid cleaner, esteemed for its wide-ranging applications. As an organic acid, it stands out due to its biodegradability and environmental friendliness, offering significantly lower toxicity than many alternative acids.
Glycolic acid is characterized by its small molecular size, possessing both acid and alcohol functionalities. This dual-functionality not only enhances its cleaning efficacy but also broadens its application potential across various industries. Its unique properties make it ideal for a broad spectrum of cleaning applications including hard surfaces, industrial water systems, masonry surfaces, boiler systems, concrete cleaners and removers, water wells, and metal surfaces.
Problems Solved
The toxic profile of inorganic acids presents a significant challenge in industrial cleaning; however, the use of ultra-high purity glycolic acid effectively addresses this issue. Glycolic acid offers a less corrosive alternative to mineral acids, thereby reducing the potential for equipment damage over time. Glycolic acid also improves chelation efficiency, enhancing the removal of deposits and preventing the buildup of unwanted residues.
The pungent odor associated with acetic and other acids can be problematic, yet glycolic acid solutions offer a more pleasant and manageable scent, thus improving workplace conditions.
The demand for NSF-certified acids is critical for many industries. Glycolic acid meets these stringent standards, ensuring its suitability in sensitive applications. Glycolic acid provides a lower volatility option compared to conventional VOC acids, thus limiting harmful emissions. Its chloride-free composition is particularly advantageous, as it minimizes the risk of corrosion, further extending the lifespan of industrial equipment.
Additionally, the improved handling and storage characteristics of glycolic acid simplify operational logistics, presenting a valuable solution for industries grappling with the complexities of traditional mineral acids
Glycolic Acid is an organic, naturally occurring acid that is excellent in breaking down bonds, dissolving, and releasing hardened cement from common construction site surfaces. Keep your tools, equipment, and vehicles cleaned and maintained with Glycolic Acid-based concrete remover formulations.
Glycolic Acid has unique features for inkjet inks, lithographic inks, and fountain solutions. The key features of a hydroxylic and carboxylic group allow it to function as a penetrant, chelating agent, or buffer depending on your ink formulating needs.
Glycolic acid is an ideal low-corrosive organic acid for metal surface treatment and cleaning. Glycolic acid has a superior environmental and performance profile when compared to other mineral and organic acids.
Glycolic is the ideal acid for concrete cleaning formulations as it provides deep penetration and excellent cleaning efficacy with low to no corrosion to equipment and metal surfaces.
Glycolic acid is one of the top solutions for water well rehabilitation and flow stimulation. It provides superior cleaning efficacy for hard water scales (calcium, magnesium, manganese salts), various iron deposits, polysaccharide deposits, and bio slime.
Glycolic acid, a versatile hydroxyacetic acid from PureTech Scientific, has been increasingly used in the oil and gas industry due to its unique properties that enhance various operational processes. It is known for its effective cleaning, corrosion inhibition, and scale-removal capabilities.
