Product Details

Focus RP 45C is a low foaming, water-soluble corrosion inhibitor for use on cast iron and steel alloys. It has exceptional hard water stability, is based on organic acids and is neutralized with amines. Designed for use in water­based synthetic metalworking fluids, water-based hydraulic fluids and cleaners, Focus RP 45C is compatible with most synthetic water-based metalworking additives, like polyalkylene glycols, surfactants, pH builders, etc.

Benefits

  • Soft film, easily washed off
  • Excellent hard water stability
  • Bums off cleanly for high temperature processing operations
  • Soluble in water, water-soluble alcohols and glycols
  • Low foaming
  • Boron-free

Typical Properties

Property RP 45C
Appearance Clear Amber liquid
Specific gravity @ 25 °C 1.12
Viscosity @ 40 °C (cSt) 50
1% pH in DI water 8.4
Acid value (mg KOH/g) 40
Pounds/gallon 9.4

Typical Applications

Treat rates of Focus RP 45C in finished synthetic fluids range from 10% to 20%, depending on the particular machining operations and dilution rates of the finished fluid in water. It is used for short term storage after machining of the parts. Final application of Focus RP 45C ranges from 0.5% to 1.0%, depending on the length of storage and the storage environment of the machined part. When the water evaporates, a thin liquid film remains, providing rust protection to ferrous metals. The finished fluids must have a pH above 8.0.
