Abstract
A powder treatment kit for decontaminating metal and metal containing surfaces, removing mill scale, improving the integrity of weldments, removing sulfides, greatly reducing surface oxidation, and mitigating the failure of protective coatings. The powder treatment kit for cleaning substrate surfaces for removal of water and non-water soluble oxides, ionic compounds, oxidized metal species, or other contaminants, comprising a surface pH modifier with a weight percent from 30 percent to 90 percent; a water-soluble oxidizer to react with non-water-soluble sulfides attached to the metal surface, to be dispersed, in an amount from 0.1 wt % to 50 wt %; a pH buffer to maintain a resulting solution pH from 1.5 weight percent to 69.8 weight percent; and a surface tension reducing component.
