Citric Acid Passivation
                     What Is Citric Acid Passivation & 
How It Is Useful?
The process of Citric Acid Passivation is predicated on state-of-the-art technology using 
environmentally friendly and safe acid to get rid of free iron from the surface of chrome 
steel. Chrome steel consists of a combination of metals, mainly chromium, iron, nickel, & in 
some cases, manganese & molybdenum alongside other materials in some quantities.
This distinctive mixture allows the exclusive characteristics of corrosion resistance by 
developing an outer protective passive oxide layer. Chrome steel surfaces may be 
tremendously immune to corrosion if appropriately passivated and cleaned before use. Even 
the 300 series has austenitic chrome steel, which will only worsen continuously and self-
catalyze once the corrosion site has started. In a very highly corrosive 
environment, the expansion of the corrosion site will increase rapidly. Thus, 
passivation & cleaning of services before use are crucial to attaining maximum 
resistance to corrosion.
Preventing corrosion with the assistance of citric passivation using CitriSurf 
technology has significantly improved standard acid formulations. After removing 
the rust from the surface, the acid forms a water-soluble complex with the iron 
ions, typing them up to not negatively impact. Additionally, acid doesn't result in 
environmental and health hazards that include acid. 
By their very nature, CitriSurf products are non-corrosive, non-toxic, and 
biodegradable. Citric acid is a natural organic acid found in oranges and other 
citrus fruits. It's usually considered safe and is generally employed in many 
beverages and foods. 
It simply means Citrif is compatible with the environment and may generally be 
disposed of into sanitary sewage systems with minimal waste treatment to satisfy 
environmental agency approvals.

Conversely, acid is hazardous, which poses a risk for considerable personnel hazards and 
threatens the property. It's also a type of oxidizer which maximizes risk and expense. After 
its utilization, expensive waste treatment is vital and might make the user liable for long- 
term liability under regulatory agencies.
 
Citric Acid Passivation represents state-of-the-art technology that's incredibly effective & 
helps Remove Rust From Stainless Steel easily.
