Chemetall launches eco-friendly water-based fluorescent penetrant
August 19, 2015
Favorable COD and BOD values
The sound ecological properties of Britemor® 921 (W) are based on its very favorable Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD) and Biological Oxygen Demand (BOD) values compared to current generation products. Equipped with a very low COD/BOD ratio, Chemetall can offer its customers a more biodegradable product. The overall low COD and BOD values of Britemor® 921 (W) reduces the amount of contaminants in the rinse water. Consequently, the process requires less consumable, such as activated charcoal, to adsorb organic load in the waste water. Complemented by a low toxic unit value, Britemor® 921 (W) offers the opportunity of a direct discharge to the drain, depending on local water, environment authority regulations.
Self-developing penetrant allows bright indication
Britemor® 921 (W) can be used with all existing Chemetall developer systems (PD3, LD9, water-based developers) or as a self-developing process, avoiding the additional usage and the costs of an extra developer product. The innovative technology is classified Level 1 in accordance with EN ISO 3452-2 and offers many benefits to the automotive components market, general industry foundries and NDT inspection/service companies with regard to process cost savings, environmental aspects and performance enhancement.
