ELEVANCE CLEAN® 1200 – ASPHALT AND TAR REMOVAL
Elevance Clean® 1200 is an effective industrial grade bio-based
ingredient used in aqueous and non-aqueous formulations
for cleaning tar, asphalt and bitumen from the surface of
tools, equipment and vehicles. It successfully addresses the
environmental, health and safety (EH&S) concerns of many
traditional ingredients currently on the market.
When compared to most petroleum-based solvents (e.g.
Benzene, Ethyl Benzene, Toluene, and Xylenes-BETX),
Elevance Clean® 1200 has an improved environmental
profile, and when compared to other bio-based products (e.g.
d-Limonene) Elevance Clean® 1200 is VOC-exempt. These
attributes of Elevance Clean® 1200 will allow formulators
maximum flexibility in developing products that will meet your
customers’ most challenging cleaning requirements.
The Elevance Clean® 1200 product line consists of two
products containing the same active material. Elevance Clean®
1200XA has no added fragrance while Elevance Clean® 1200HT
has fragrance added. The technical performance of both
products is identical.
All references to Elevance Clean® 1200 in this document refer
to both products.
