Icetech - Dry Ice Blasting & Cleaningposted on 17 January 2012 | posted in Dry Ice Blasting
Dry ice blasting is a revolutionary cleaning method that uses dry ice pellets (CO2 in solid form) as the blasting media. The process is very environmentally friendly and provides a fast and effective alternative to traditional methods of cleaning industrial production equipment. Dry ice blasting works on 3 levels - Kinetic - when dry ice pellets are accelerated in a jet of compressed air and strike a surface at the speed of sound, they crack and loosen the coating on the surface being treated. Thermal - the low temperature of dry ice pellets (- 79C/110F) makes the coating brittle, cracks it and loosens it. This allows dry ice to permeate the coating. Sublimation - dry ice penetrates the coating and immediately sublimes (passes direct from solid to vapour state). This results in a 700-fold increase in volume, an explosive effect that lifts the coating off the surface. Contact us now for a free assessment of your requirements. Share this blog entry:
