Phix XIV® – WT
Phix XIV® offers a high pH solution without the use of caustics such as sodium hydroxide, potassium hydroxide or other dangerous chemicals. Phix XIV® is used as a replacement for caustics in a variety of industries including food processing, oil and gas exploration, as well as industrial cleaning. Phix XIV® carries a triple-zero HMIS score and is classified as a non-skin irritant and is non DOT regulated. Phix XIV® is durable and effective at raising pH and cleaning in cold temperatures and is freeze-thaw stable. The risk of burns from traditional caustics is greatly reduced, as well as reducing the damage that caustics can do to equipment. Phix XIV® is a safe, viable alternative for caustic solution applications, such as neutralizing acid gases in drilling and production fluids, increasing the alkalinity of fluid mixtures, cleaning and degreasing agent and resin regeneration. Phix XIV® can be used full strength or diluted with water to replace caustic cleaners.
