More Information

Kemphos 2001 can be used in machine dishwashing detergents for home and for industrial and institutional (I&I) purposes. The chlorine contributes to the overall cleaning power of the detergent by oxidizing proteinaceous soil. The phosphate contributes toward shiny dishes and reduces spotting on glassware. Phosphates also control water hardness and enhance detergency.
