BMG’s range of Liqui Moly additives, oils and lubricants is enhanced by highly-efficient industrial and hand cleaning products, developed to ensure safe and effortless cleaning and degreasing in all sectors.
Included in this range is the Liqui Moly Oil Binder, designed for the safe and efficient clean-up of oil spills.
This powerful oil absorber is based on a 100% polyurethane hard foam, which binds oil, fuel and hydrophobic (water-repellent) chemicals. An important feature of this product is that the oil take-up capacity is barely reduced by water, which significantly enhances efficiency, even on wet surfaces.
This odourless cleaning material, which is suitable for small and large areas inside and outdoors, is also recommended for breakdown recovery services and fire departments. Notable properties of this product also include residue-free combustion and a high spreading rate – important features in an emergency situation. The Liqui Moly Oil Binder has an efficient absorption ratio, where one litre of the product binds 0,58 litres of oil. “Prior to use, we advise our customers to test the compatibility of the liquid to be absorbed, with Liqui Moly Oil Absorber, especially for large-scale applications, unknown liquids or mixtures,” explains Carlo Beukes, business development manager for BMG’s Agricultural, Automotive and Lubrication division. “We recommend that 5mm of Liqui Moly Oil Absorber be evenly spread onto the area to be cleaned and removed after sufficient reaction time. Effective cleaning may be accelerated and enhanced by sweeping the area with a hard broom.
“For processes that require the removal of oil on outside surfaces, we advise customers to apply the oil binder to the oil surface at least twice, gathering the binder into a pile and collecting it as carefully and completely as possible. It is important that users clean the area with a 1-% water-cleanser mixture.
“To minimise a negative environmental impact, disposal of used cleaning products should be carried out according to the current regulations set out for the substances absorbed,” he says.
BMG’s Liqui Moly Rapid Cleaner spray has been developed using a combination of carefully selected acetone-free solvents for the rapid, efficient cleaning and degreasing of components in industrial applications.
This product – with low surface tension and a high proportion of active components – offers excellent penetration properties, enabling it to easily dissolve oil, grease, resin and tar residues and contaminants, even in hidden areas. After the solvent has evaporated, the surface is left free of grease and tar-type residues.
