چکیده
ne01 themostcommoncausesof coating failure is inadequate surface preparation. Hence it is important to accuratelyassesstheefficiency of a cleaning technique prior to introducing it in a commercial operation. aecent developments in the cleaning of metallic surfaces ~ idethe use of aqueoussolutions that can beoperated at l i . Lemperatures to save energy. Some expensive organic Soivents that have been employed are economical because of their higher cleaning efficiency. Much of the published literature, however, fails to assess cleaning efficiencyquantitatively. This paper reviews methods for measuring the degree of cleaning and describes a technique for determining cleaning efficiency. The technique is illustrated by re:I I

A comparative study of the cleaning effect of various ultrasonic cleaners on new, unused endodontic instruments
BACKGROUND AND AIM: This study was carried out to compare three different ultrasonic cleaner devices in the cleaning process of endodontic instruments by scanning electron microscope (SEM). METHODS: In this study, 120 unused brand new hand and rotary instruments were examined after removing from the sealed package. The instruments were randomly divided into six groups of 20 rotary or hand files...
متن کاملMechanical Surface Treatments of Ti-6Al-4V Miniplate Implant Manufactured by Electrical Discharge Machining (TECHNICAL NOTE)
Present work aims at multi-mechanical surface treatment of Ti-6Al-4V based-miniplate implant manufactured by electrical discharge machining (EDM) for biomedical use. Mechanical surface treatment consists of consequent use of ultrasonic cleaning, rotary tumbler polishing, and brushing. Surface layers are analyzed employing scanning electron microscopy and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. Al...
متن کاملLarge-scale ultrasonic cleaning system: Design of a multi-transducer device for boat cleaning (20kHz).
The present study is part of a global project which consists in the development of an automatic cleaning station for immersed boats (cockle, ninepin, etc.) in a self-service mode, associating an innovative ultrasonic device for cleaning with a specific water treatment. The originality of the process is that cleaning is performed by three transducers operating simultaneously at low frequency and...
متن کاملUltrasound irradiation combined with hydraulic cleaning on fouled polyethersulfone and polyvinylidene fluoride membranes.
In this study, an ultrasonic irradiation technique was utilized to mitigate the fouling of polyethersulfone (PES) and polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membranes. The use of ultrasound at 20 kHz was applied to a dead-end microfiltration cell in order to mitigate fouling caused by the presence of colloidal bentonite particles. The effect of ultrasonic power and pulse duration on the permeate flux r...
متن کاملThe optimisation of ultrasonic cleaning procedures for dairy fouled ultrafiltration membranes.
Ultrafiltration (UF) of whey is a major membrane based process in the dairy industry. However, commercialization of this application has been limited by membrane fouling, which has a detrimental influence on the permeation rate. There are a number of different chemical and physical cleaning methods currently used for cleaning a fouled membrane. It has been suggested that the cleaning frequency ...
متن کاملSUBSTITUTING FOR CFCs USED AS CLEANING AGENTS: (1) PARTICLE REMOVAL
Freon-TF is no better a cleaning fluid than deionized water for removing either organic (polystyrene latex spheres) or inorganic (glass beads) particles from silicon wafer surfaces, as shown by comparative measurements of cleaning efficiencies in both an ultrasonic bath and a hydrodynamic cleaning apparatus. A primary reason for this lackluster performance is the higher van der Waals’ forces of...
