Lime Cleaner Supplier Distributor Manufacturer in Kolkata West Bengal india

East india chemicals Chemicals and a few more manufacturing units are owned by RXSOL RxMarine . East india chemicals Group is the pioneer manufacturer  Supplier of  Lime Cleaner  in Kolkata India.  we have led a quality revolution across our product range. East india chemicals group has several manufacturing facilities spread across East India. 

Lime Cleaner  is a concentrated acid–based liquidproduct designed to attack and eliminate limestone, caustic lime deposits and dry lime stainsfrom cargo tanks and other large common metalsurface installations. Lime cleaner  is formulated with strong acids, surface–active agents and special corrosion inhibitors, sufficient enough to neutralize strong alkaline–caustic conditions. 

 

Lime is a calcium-containing inorganic mineral composed primarily of oxides, and hydroxide, usually calcium oxide and/ or calcium hydroxide. It is also the name for calcium oxide which occurs as a product of coal seam fires and in altered limestone xenoliths in volcanic ejecta. The word lime originates with its earliest use as building mortar and has the sense of sticking or adhering.

These materials are still used in large quantities as building and engineering materials (including limestone products, cement, concrete, and mortar), as chemical feedstocks, and for sugar refining, among other uses. Lime industries and the use of many of the resulting products date from prehistoric times in both the Old World and the New World. Lime is used extensively for wastewater treatment with ferrous sulfate.

The rocks and minerals from which these materials are derived, typically limestone or chalk, are composed primarily of calcium carbonate. They may be cut, crushed, or pulverized and chemically altered. Burning (calcination) converts them into the highly caustic material quicklime (calcium oxide) and, through subsequent addition of water, into the less caustic (but still strongly alkaline) slaked lime or hydrated lime (calcium hydroxide, Ca(OH)2), the process of which is called slaking of lime. Lime kilns are the kilns used for lime burning and slaking.
Calcium Lime Rust, more commonly known as CLR, is a household cleaning product used for dissolving stains, such as calcium, lime, and iron oxide deposits.

Its ingredients may include various compounds:

water
lactic acid
gluconic acid
lauramine oxide
Propylene Glycol
n-Butyl Ether
Glycolic acid
Sulfamic acid
Disodium Capryloamphodipropionate
Ethylene Glycol n-Butyl Ether
Citric Acid
One formulation is Lactic Acid 12-18%wt, Gluconic Acid 2.50-3.75%wt, Lauramine Oxide 1.50-3.25%wt with the remainer being water. 

ADVANTAGES AND CHARACTERISTICS

•Ideal for the removal of limestone, birdlime anddry lime stains from all common metal tanks and installations.Acts quickly and thoroughly.Applicable to all metal surfaces and parts except those being galvanized and those made of Tin,Zinc, Aluminum and Lead.
A water–soluble, non–flammable liquid mixture Can be used to safely neutralize strong alkaline liquids and solids.No known effect on rubber or plastic compounds.May be combined with a specific range of other products.Replaces the use of other products, which fail to
treat awkward situations like the removal of saltdeposits and other hard deposits such as rust.Cost effective, easy to apply and use. 

APPLICATION AND USE

A. Dosing Procedure

LIME CLEANER must be used in quantities proportional to the tank surface area that is to be covered, the extent of contamination, the availabledowntime and the application method being used.
Therefore, the actual quantity needed cannot be prescribed beforehand, since the operator is thebest placed person, to decide the required quantity, analogous to the situation at hand.

B. Cleaning Procedure

LIME CLEANER may be applied by two methods, injection and soaking.Injection is a method where a high–pressure machine, suitable to process chemical solutions, isused with a 50% LIME CLEANER/water solution toinject directly onto the tank surface area. Then,the solution must be left to act for 15 minutes followed by thorough rinsing using a high–pressurewater supply source. Thereafter, the surface must be left to dry.Note that percentage dilutions may vary depending on the thickness and hardness of the deposited lime layer.
