AD Chemicals develops and manufactures a comprehensive range of paint stripping solutions that effectively remove paints and coatings from a wide variety of metal substrates. The portfolio includes both cold and hot stripping products, with or without methylene chloride, tailored to different applications and requirements.
Additive Strip 3K – Alkaline stripping (hot)
Additive Strip 3K is a specialised additive that is added to sodium hydroxide or potassium hydroxide to significantly accelerate alkaline stripping of, for example, hanging hooks and painted parts. The addition of this product enables an efficient and cost saving stripping process. Additive Strip 3K contains no heavy metals, making it more environmentally friendly in use.
Application and Process Parameters
| Additive Strip 3K – Product Properties | Description |
| Appearance | Clear, light yellow liquid. |
| Product type | Paint stripper, coating remover, stripping agent |
| Application method | Immersion bath |
| Flake caustic concentration (flakes) | Bath make up using flakes: 12.5 to 200 g/l KOH or 15 to 175 g/l NaOH Additive 3K Strip: 100 to 200 g/l |
| Liquid caustic concentration | Bath make up using liquid caustic: 25 to 400 g/l KOH 50% or 50 to 500 g/l NaOH 33% Additive 3K Strip: 100 to 200 g/l |
| Operating temperature | 50 to 90 °C |
| Note | The caustic concentration and treatment time depend on the paint type and film build. After stripping, the parts must be rinsed with water. The required caustic concentration depends on the paint type and the coating thickness: |
For heavily coated hanging hooks, a higher concentration is recommended (300 to 400 g/l KOH 50%).
For lightly painted parts, a lower dosage is sufficient (25 to 100 g/l KOH 50%).
For optimal results, AD Chemicals recommends determining the correct process parameters together in consultation.
