During aluminum machining, the surface of aluminum alloy parts is often contaminated with various oils, residual polishing paste, hand prints, oil seals, surface waxes and other contaminants. In order to ensure the quality of subsequent plating or oxidation treatment, the degreasing of the aluminum surface is crucial. However, aluminum has poor chemical stability and is prone to corrosion in alkaline or acidic environments. How to avoid corrosion of the substrate while removing oil has become a major challenge in the development of aluminum degreasing powders.

The difficulty of degreasing aluminum mainly stems from its surface characteristics, the type and adhesion of the oil and the chemical stability of the aluminum itself. Aluminum and its alloy surface has a naturally occurring alumina film, this layer of oxide film has good corrosion resistance, but can also hinder the cleaning agent and oil contact, increasing the difficulty of degreasing. At the same time, the aluminum processing process uses a variety of types of grease, including machine oil, grease, wax oil, etc., these oils are often strong adhesion, more difficult to remove. Different types of grease require different cleaning agents and processes, increasing the complexity of the degreasing operation.

For the difficulties in the aluminum degreasing process, Bigely aluminum degreasing powder BC-19 provides an effective solution. The degreasing powder contains surfactants that can quickly remove all kinds of stubborn oils under mild alkaline conditions without damaging the aluminum surface. Compared to conventional strong alkaline cleaners, BC-19 can effectively avoid corrosion problems on aluminum. At the same time, BC-19 has a wide range of applicability and is effective not only for aluminum, but also for degreasing of plating of plastic parts.
