Detojet Hard Surface Cleaner

Question:
What cleaner would Alconox, Inc recommend for use in glass substrate and module in-process cleaning for large scale glass photovoltaic modules?

Answer:
Alconox, Inc. has introduced Detojet hard surface cleaner for use in glass substrate and module in-process cleaning for large scale glass photovoltaic modules. Detojet can be used in horizontal glass washers that clean the glass panels, followed by rinsing and drying prior to further processing.

Large glass superstrates of transparent conductive oxide coated glass can be cleaned prior to manufacturing and during manufacturing using large horizontal conveyor washers with Detojet cleaner. The combination of dispersants and cleaning agents results in excellent particle control and debris free surface. The dispersants are able to lift particles into solution by overcoming the electrostatic attractions to the hard surfaces and by reducing the hydrophobic tendency of the surface of the particle, thereby rendering it more water dispersible. The cleaning agents remove hydrophobic oily films that can interfere with the particle removing action of the dispersants as well as lead to non-uniform layers during manufacturing.

Detojet is available world wide thru a global network of dealers. See Alconox.com to find a local dealer.
