Product description

ARDROX 6485 A
is a gel consisting of biodegradable surfactants, alcaline additives and corrosion inhibitors.
The product does not contain any free caustic substances, chromates, phosphates, nitrates, solvents (including glycol or glycol ether), EDTA or its salts, NTA or its salts.
Furthermore, ARDROX® 6485 was specially developed in order to meet the requirements of • Directive 2003/53/EC relating to the restrictions of the marketing and use of nonyl phenol and nonyl phenol ethoxylates • and of the Regulation (EC) No. 648/2004 relating to the biodegradability of surfactants. ARDROX® 6485 is used to remove grease, oil and other contaminations found on aircraft exteriors. ARDROX® 6485 and its aquaeous solution can be easily rinsed off with water.

Method of use
ARDROX® 6485 is used as concentrate or diluted in water (up to 1:4). Apply a uniform film by spraying or brushing and allow to dwell for 10 to 15 min. Longer dwell times can be necessary for heavily soiled surfaces, but care should be taken that the film does not dry. Apply mechanical action such as brushing if necessary, then rinse with clean water.

Effects on materials
ARDROX® 6485 meets the requirements of the major aerospace specifications such as, for instance, Boeing D6-17487 Rev. P, AMS 1523A and AMS 1533A. Its effects on usual materials like aluminium alloys, magnesium, titanium and steel were tested.
