Product Description

DOWSIL™ DS-1000 Aqueous Silicone Cleaner is a water-based organic surfactant blend used to remove non-substantive, uncured silicone residues from surfaces, tools, processing equipment, and manufacturing units. The cleaner emulsifies silicone oils, greases, and uncured elastomers and is specifically formulated to solubilize silicone oils so they can be removed during cleaning and rinsing. A recommended 10% aqueous use solution may be applied by equipment immersion, recirculation through piping, or recirculation through a spray nozzle. The product is compatible with clean-in-place procedures and equipment, supporting silicone-removal tasks in industrial processing environments. A rinsing step is required after cleaning, with additional standard sanitization procedures performed as appropriate.

Key features

  • Silicone-residue removal: Emulsifies silicone oils, greases, and uncured elastomers for removal from contaminated processing surfaces and equipment.
  • Aqueous cleaning system: Used as a recommended 10% aqueous solution and has a closed-cup flash point above 100°C.
  • Flexible equipment-cleaning methods: Supports immersion, piping recirculation, and spray-nozzle recirculation and is compatible with clean-in-place procedures.

Applications / Suitable for

  • Cleaning surfaces contaminated with non-substantive, uncured silicone residues
  • Cleaning tools and processing equipment
  • Cleaning piping and manufacturing units by recirculation
