Kyzen’s AQUANOX® A4703 Wins a 2010 NPI Award

NASHVILLE — Kyzen announces that it has been awarded an NPI Award in the category of Cleaning Materials for its AQUANOX® A4703 Neutral pH Aqueous Cleaning Chemistry. The award was presented to the company during a Tuesday, April 6, 2010 ceremony that took place in the Mandalay Bay Resort & Convention Center in Las Vegas during APEX 2010.

An aqueous cleaning solution designed with a pH neutral formulation, AQUANOX® A4703 is combined with Kyzen’s revolutionary inhibition technology to provide superior material compatibility. Additionally, A4703 is effective at concentrations as low as three percent, while being environmentally friendly and providing the lowest cost of ownership.

“The NPI Award recognizes innovation. Kyzen literally means continuous improvement, and constant innovation guided by the voice of the customer has been our strategy for 20 years,” said Tom Forsythe, Vice President. “Kyzen was created to develop renewable resource cleaning materials, which has been our single focus from day one. The voice of the customer tells us that eliminating white residue, cleaning in tight gaps, safety, eco-friendly, low cost of ownership materials are what they want and AQUANOX® A4703 delivers.”

This chemistry was developed for use in spray batch and spray in-line cleaning systems to remove OA, no-clean, and RMA pastes and fluxes, including difficult Pb-free residues. AQUANOX® A4703 is easily controlled by refractive index, manually or when using an automated process control system such as the Kyzen PCS.

AQUANOX® A4703 is available in one, five, and 55 gallon containers.
