Optinox Citron 200

OPTINOX ® CITRON 200 is a high-quality chemical blend formulated with proprietary blends of inhibitors and surfactants for the cleaning and passivation of stainless steel surfaces, special alloys, titanium, and precious metals.
OPTINOX ® CITRON 200 is specifically designed to provide the highest possible chromium oxide levels by cost-effectively and effectively removing all free iron and contaminants from the surfaces of most stainless steel types, including austenitic, ferritic, martensitic, precipitation-hardened, and duplex.
OPTINOX ® CITRON 200, a passivation chemical, is used to passivate stainless steel components in a wide range of applications, from aerospace to food and beverage processing.
In the aerospace industry, it is used to prepare parts, especially titanium parts, for flight by removing free iron and other contaminants that can cause corrosion. In the food and beverage industry, OPTINOX ® CITRON 200 is used to ensure that stainless steel equipment used in production processes is free of impurities that could affect product quality and safety.
OPTINOX ® CITRON 200 is also widely used in healthcare, hospital settings, pharmacology, medical device, and pharmaceutical industries, ensuring that stainless steel tools and equipment meet cleanliness and safety requirements.
The versatility and effectiveness of OPTINOX ® CITRON 200 make it a reliable choice as a passivation chemical for a wide variety of applications.
It removes calcium carbonate from various materials such as brass, steel, and nickel.
It is environmentally friendly, contains no VOCs, and does not produce toxic or corrosive fumes.
It is safe for use in combination machines, ultrasonic systems, and washing units.
It meets all current industry standards. It is suitable for manual applications.
It meets the requirements of ASTM A967, ASTM A380, ASTM B600, and AMS 2700 standards.
It passes salt spray, immersion, copper sulfate, and high humidity tests.
It is also compatible with magnetic systems and non-magnetic surfaces.
It provides better and faster removal of free iron from surfaces.
It removes only iron from the surface, protecting other metals in the alloy. This affects the depth of the surface treatment and reduces variations in the overall dimension of the part, which can be an important factor in tight tolerance and high-precision machining.
