Mold cleaning agents are metal mold cleaning agents, often in spray form. Mold cleaning agents are used to clean organic substances such as grease and rust inhibitors from molds. The appropriate mold cleaning agent depends on the strength of the cleaning power and the type of mold. When cleaning numerous molds or large molds, the cleaning agent should be diluted in a tank rather than a spray type, and the molds should be washed by pouring the cleaning agent over the molds.
Mold cleaning agents contain various compounds depending on the product. Some products may contain compounds that fall under poison control laws, so it is necessary to check the safety data sheet (SDS) for proper handling before use.
Mold cleaning agents are used to clean metal molds. Mold cleaning agents are used to remove organic matter adhering to molds. Typical examples include the removal of product debris, burns, and additives from molds used in the processing of rubber, resin, and other organic materials.
Since mold cleaning agents are suitable for cleaning adhered organic matter, they can also be used to remove oil stains on metal machine parts in addition to molds. Spray-type mold cleaning agents can also be used to remove rust inhibitors and metal scraps from wires.
Mold cleaning agents are used to remove organic matter from molds. Molds used in the manufacturing process are subject to contamination from the product itself, such as tar, dirt, and lubricating oil used to drive the machine. In particular, molds that are processed and formed at high temperatures accumulate various kinds of adhesions. Mold cleaning agents are designed to break down and remove such strongly adhered organic contaminants. To prevent chemical injury caused by the cleaning agent, appropriate protective equipment should be worn after checking the safety data sheet when using the product.
Some mold cleaning agents are composed of aliphatic hydrocarbons and alcohol-based compounds. Mold cleaning agents containing these components can be used to clean metal machinery as well as molds. Mold cleaning agents composed of aliphatic hydrocarbons strip dirt from molds. Therefore, the dirt can be removed by wiping it off after applying the cleaning agent. Mold cleaning agents may fall under various laws and regulations, therefore, appropriate management is required in accordance with the laws and regulations.
