Emulsification: Rapid
pH: 2.2 at 1 oz./gal.
Wetting Ability: Excellent
Odor: None
Rinsing: Excellent
Specific Gravity: 9.42 lbs./gal.
Surfactants: Biodegradable
Foam: Medium to high

MIC -601 is safe on all types of stainless steel. It attacks (mildly) most common metals: iron, brass, magnesium, and aluminum. It attacks zinc more aggressively and therefore will attack the galvanized coating on steel. MIC-601 is safe on paints, although continuous exposure to the material may cause bleeding and deterioration.

USE PROCEDURE: In food manufacturing, MIC-601 at 1/4 to 1 Oz./Gal. Is used for the removal of milkstone, mineral deposits and proteinaceous deposits from processing lines and equipment in dairies, food, and meat packing plants after alkaline cleaning. Effective for rust stain removal at 1:5 to 1:10. For manual descaling of stainless steel use MIC-601 at 1:10 with water.

Breweries: For removal of beerstone and other proteinaceous soil, use MIC-601 at 1/4 to 1 oz. Per gallon for these purposes. For copper brightening, use 1 part MIC-601 to 3-10 parts water. For manual cleaning of stainless steel, use at 1:10.

TITRATION: Use titration kit.

SAFETY DATA: Contains Phosphoric Acid. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. DO NOT INGEST. When handling, wear rubber gloves, goggles and any other appropriate equipment or clothing to avoid skin contact. Avoid contact with clothing. Should contact occur, flush skin with water; for eyes, flood with large amounts of water for 15 minutes and get medical attention. If ingestion occurs, DO NOT INDUCE VOMITING.
