Zusammenfassung: | The invention is a cleaning solution for degreasing metal articles which contains water soluble, N-alkyl substituted amides in which the alkyl substituent has from 6 to 22 carbon atoms and at least one of (i) amine oxide surfactants, (ii) non-ionic water soluble nonionic surfactants with molecules containing a polyoxyalkylene block, and (iii) alkali stable anionic, or both anionic and amphoteric, surfactants. Preferred compositions of the invention can replace a vapor degreasing process for cleaning oil, grease, and waxy-type contaminants from metal articles to the level of cleanliness required in the aerospace industry. |
