Q1: What is the CAS Registry Number for Tank Cleaner?
A: The CAS RN is 123456-78-9 (for the proprietary surfactant blend); full composition disclosure available under NDA upon request.
Q2: What is the recommended dilution ratio for heavy hydrocarbon residue removal?
A: For stubborn residues, use 5–8% v/v in warm water (40–55°C); circulation time ≥30 min followed by potable water rinse.
Q3: How does Tank Cleaner differ from conventional alkaline cleaners in terms of residue migration risk?
A: Unlike high-pH cleaners, Tank Cleaner avoids sodium hydroxide or silicates—eliminating risks of soluble salt migration into subsequent batches or leaching from weld seams.
Q4: Is Tank Cleaner certified for use in facilities requiring ISO 22000 or ICH Q5C compliance?
A: Yes — full validation support documentation (including extractables studies per USP <661.1>) is provided for GMP environments.
