pHlex HAR®
LOW pH REPLACEMENT FOR HYDROCHLORIC ACID
Until now, the food industry has been forced to used dangerous acids and caustics for peeling, cleaning and pH adjustment. The pHlexaPeel line of products employs the most advanced developments in green technologies to replace those dangerous chemicals with safe yet potent replacements .
pHlexHAR® has a pH of zero and the ability to descale and adjust pH with the strength of hydrochloric acid it replaces. pHlexHAR® also easily removes rust without damaging the surface as acid rust removers can. Still, all that potency comes with a triple-zero HMIS score, which makes it safe on skin, eyes and equipment.
Because the hydrogen in pHlexHAR® it has a stronger bond to the H+ ion than those in acids, it has a slower spending nature. This makes pHlexHAR® an excellent line cleaner. pHlexHAR® contains no acids and leaves no minerals or salts behind. And because pHlexHAR® neutralizes with water, a caustic rinse step is not required. The power behind pHlexHAR® is patented and only available from pHlexaPeel products.
pHlexHAR® is 100% readily biodegradable and is guaranteed to meet or exceed the EPA’s requirements as set forth in the Design for Environment screening process. That includes 100% biodegradation in less than 10 days. Like all pHlexaPeel products, pHlexHAR® can be shipped common carrier and requires no secondary containment.
pHlexHAR® boasts LC50 and LD50 scores well below regulated toxicity limits and many times less than hydrochloric acid.
pHlexHAR® is based on proven technology which carries NSF certification codes A1, A2, G1, G5, & C1. NSF certification pending.
