Soiling
Efficacy
The following substances can cause

cabinet and the accessories:
- Hydrochloric acid

Reaction between process chemicals and soiling
Efficacy
Natural oils and fats can be emulsified with
alkaline process chemicals. This can lead to
a heavy build-up of foam.
Stains containing high protein levels, such
as blood, can cause a heavy build-up of
foam when processed with alkaline process
chemicals.
Non-precious metals, such as aluminium,
magnesium and zinc, can release hydrogen
when processed with very acidic or alkaline
process chemicals (oxyhydrogen reaction).
