This disclosure relates to a cleaning composition that contains 1) hydroxylamine, 2) an amino alcohol, 3) hexylene glycol, and 4) water.

Warewash detergent compositions with reducing agents to overcome corrosion challenges in stainless steel dish machines subject to conditions from chlorine sanitizing rinse steps (or other oxidizing chlorine containing compositions) are provided. Liquid and solid detergent composition beneficially containing a reducing agent that reacts with chlorine introduced in sanitizing rinse steps that follow detergent cleaning steps are provided. Methods for ware washing using the detergent compositions with reducing agents and methods for reducing residual chlorine in a ware washing cycle are also provided.

Glycine is an organic compound that can be used in the making of a synthetic base that obviates all the drawbacks of strong bases such as sodium hydroxide. The new compound is made by dissolving glycine in water and adding calcium hydroxide at a molar ration of about 1:1. Next, sodium percarbonate is dissolved in the solution to produce the new compound, which can be referred to as glycine hydroxide.

Novel cleaning compositions, usable for removing a cured support material from a printed object obtained by additive manufacturing such as 3D inkjet printing are provided. The cleaning compositions are aqueous alkaline compositions containing a combination of two alkaline substances: an alkali metal hydroxide and an alkali metal silicate, each at a concentration of no more than 3 weight percents of the total weight of the composition. The cleaning compositions are characterized by high and constant dissolution rate, and are particularly useful for removing a cured support material that includes cross-linked polymeric chains such as cross-linked polyacrylate chains. Kits comprising the alkaline substances, and methods of fabricating a three-dimensional model object which utilize the cleaning compositions or the kits, and a three-dimensional model object fabricated thereby, are also provided.

Embodiments of the present disclosure generally relate to methods for refurbishing aerospace components by removing corrosion and depositing protective coatings. In one or more embodiments, a method of refurbishing an aerospace component includes exposing the aerospace component containing corrosion to an aqueous cleaning solution. The aerospace component contains a nickel superalloy, an aluminide layer disposed on the nickel superalloy, and an aluminum oxide layer disposed on the aluminide layer. The method includes removing the corrosion from a portion of the aluminum oxide layer with the aqueous cleaning solution to reveal the aluminum oxide layer, then exposing the aluminum oxide layer to a post-rinse, and forming a protective coating on the aluminum oxide layer.
