Chem-Crest ProPass
Citric Acid
Phosphate-Free
Passivation and Deoxidizer
Chem-Crest ProPass is a phosphate-free citric passivation concentrate and deoxidizer cleaner designed to remove surface contamination, increase corrosion resistance, remove discoloration, tarnishes, scales and oxides. It is an alternative for nitric acid passivation, and passes citric acid passivation evaluations such as ASTM A967. Contact a Crest representative for further details.
Chem-Crest ProPass removes light oils, light scales and oxides, and general contaminants from the surfaces of parts. To extend the life of the bath, it is recommended to ultrasonically clean before passivation.
Chem-Crest ProPass is compatible with brass, bronze, copper, stainless steel, zinc and aluminum. It is safe on glass, ceramics and plastics. Ferrous surfaces (non-stainless steel) must be protected immediately after treatment with Chem-Crest ProPass with an appropriate rust inhibitor.
