Masonry Brick Cleaner
Product code RXSOL-13-1048-025
An all purpose cleaner for brick and masonry, quickly and efficiently remove mortar residue, wood and rust stains.
Description
RXSOL-13-1048-025 Masonry Brick Cleaner,is a professional inhibited acidic masonry cleaner. Acid masonry cleaners are established for removing mortar/cement residues, efflorescence and mineral deposits, but overly strong acid can attack mortar and certain masonry, so the application instructions need proper dilution and surface testing.
MASONRY BRICK CLEANER
Product Code: RXSOL-13-1048-025
DESCRIPTION
RXSOL Masonry Brick Cleaner is a powerful, fast-acting acidic cleaner specially formulated for the removal of mortar residues, cement deposits, lime deposits, efflorescence, rust stains, mineral scale and construction-related staining from brickwork and masonry surfaces.
The product combines powerful acid cleaning action with wetting agents and corrosion-inhibiting components to penetrate stubborn mineral deposits and rapidly loosen cementitious contamination from the surface.
Its concentrated formulation allows the product to be diluted according to the severity of contamination, making RXSOL Masonry Brick Cleaner suitable for both heavy-duty post-construction cleaning and general masonry maintenance.
Application
SPECIAL FEATURES
-
Fast-acting masonry and brick cleaning formulation.
-
Rapidly attacks cement, mortar and lime-based deposits.
-
Helps remove rust stains and mineral discoloration.
-
Effective against efflorescence and construction residue.
-
Powerful wetting action improves penetration into stubborn deposits.
-
Inhibited acid formulation provides better control than the use of untreated mineral acid alone.

OUTSTANDING PROPERTIES
RXSOL Masonry Brick Cleaner provides a combination of strong chemical cleaning and excellent surface penetration.
The active acidic components react with cementitious and mineral deposits, helping break down and loosen deposits so that they can be removed by thorough water rinsing.
The incorporated wetting system improves contact between the cleaner and contaminated surface, particularly on porous masonry.
The product is supplied as a concentrate, allowing the operator to adjust cleaning strength according to the type of substrate and severity of contamination.

Chemical Cleaning Module Rx cleansers has developed a 280 litres capacity cleaning module, primarily designed for use with chemical acid solvents for descaling boilers, calorifiers, heat exchangers & other types of equipment where rust & scale form RXSOL-11-1008--DC Boilers, See Rx cleansers Practical Application Manual.
Formation of Calcium Sulfate is main cause for SCALE formation :::
The principal problem potential posed by sulfate ions in water is the possibility of calcium sulfate scale formation. Precipitation of calcium sulfate can occur when high concentrations of both calcium and sulfate exist simultaneously. There are three primary areas of water treatment in which calcium sulfate precipitation may occur boilers, cooling systems, and ion exchangers operating in the hydrogen or acid mode.
In boilers, calcium sulfate scale formation has been reduced to a minimum by modern treatment practices. The low hardness levels largely preclude calcium sulfate boiler scale. By contrast, cooling systems are subject to calcium sulfate scale deposition because the makeup is usually not treated for hardness removal. Cooling water is usually treated with sulfuric acid for pH control, and the makeup is cycled, i.e. concentrated. Calcium sulfate scale deposition can result unless the cycles of concentration are properly controlled in conjunction with the proper use of scale control chemicals. Cation ion exchangers regenerated with sulfuric acid also can pose a major calcium sulfate problem. Calcium sulfate precipitation can be avoided by controlling the acid concentration and the flow rate through the exchanger.
