Humectants, dispersants, solvents, emulsifiers, saponifiers, sequestrants, disinfectants, buffer effect, hydrolysers… are some of the properties that G2 Green detergents and cleaners have to make real magic and get rid of any stain or dirt.
Seen and not seen. As if by magic. The best trick of all time happens daily before the eyes of millions of people around the world and no one seems to be surprised anymore. It happens so many times that, in fact, the only time it becomes visible is when it doesn’t work and the stain is still there. Yes, there is something magical about cleaning. Much more than Houdini’s best escapism show, Copperfield’s illusions or David Blaine’s levitations… Because, without a doubt, if something likes when talking about wands, cards and rabbits in the hat are the disappearances and more if they take place before the astonished eyes of the spectators and consumers.
A detergent is a substance or mixture of several that applied under certain conditions is capable of removing remains of a surface pursuing three objectives: separation of dirt, dispersion and stabilization in the cleaning solution.
And the best thing is that if used correctly it usually works in almost all cases. Of course, as long as the
right detergent
is chosen. While soluble sugars, other carbohydrates and proteins are made by alkaline agents such as soda and potash or certain
enzymatic cleaners
disappear, for fats what work best are anionic or cationic. And with the mineral remains… Also seen and not seen with hydrochloric, nitric, phosphoric acid or sequestrants such as ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) or polyphosphates! There are many more. Be that as it may, they all have something in common… They are an active part of detergents.
The powers that must always be present in detergent for it to work
The simple and very complicated trick at the same time… Detergents modify the physical and chemical properties of water so that it can penetrate, dislodge and drag residues that had hardened onto surfaces. They reduce surface tension and are very good foaming,
wetting and emulsifying agents
. The theory is simple, but in practice… It requires the development of some skills. In the same way that magicians work and train their own agility, speed, reflexes and the art of distraction to achieve their goal, the quality of a good cleaner will depend on whether it fulfills to a greater or lesser extent some of the following properties. Almost magical powers.
Through its application, it seeks to eliminate layers of dirt and microorganisms present on hard surfaces or fabrics to keep them in suspension and that through rinsing they are eliminated along with the remains of the detergent.
- Humectant: That’s precisely it. It refers to the detergent’s ability to reduce the surface tension of water, allowing water to be better distributed and penetrate stains. Absolutely essential for the interaction between liquid and residues and their subsequent elimination in rinsing. It is the basis of everything without which the rest does not work.
- Dispersant: Without a doubt, it must be able to disperse dirt particles, whatever their type, in the water. Earth, dust, fats… to prevent them from adhering back to the surface or tissue. This process facilitates the rinsing phase and ensures that all traces disappear along with the wash water.
- Solvent: Then things get complicated because some stains are formed by soluble compounds. They can be of many types such as certain dyes or organic substances. Thus, a detergent with good solvent power will quickly break these compounds and keep them in solution, facilitating their elimination.
- Emulsifier: Now, it is when the most difficult one is approaching… Fats and oils are more complicated to
dissolve with water alone
because of their hydrophobic nature. The emulsifying power breaks down these spots into small blood cells, allowing water to surround them and keep them in suspension, thus facilitating their removal.
G2 Green has been doing magic for over 30 years. Designing and manufacturing highly concentrated, effective, cost-effective and sustainable products that help simplify professional cleaning processes. 3.0 formulas specially developed to cover any need.
- Saponifying: Pure magic, but for the trick to be better there must still be something else. Therefore, this property implies that the detergent can convert certain fats into soluble soaps. Especially useful for stains of lipid origin because, in addition, it improves the overall cleaning capacity of the product. Impressive.
- Sequestrant: However, the important thing is to be able to repeat it in all circumstances. Hard water contains calcium ions and also magnesium ions that can interfere with capacity. In this way, to be effective in any condition, it must be able to trap ions and neutralize them, preventing them from reducing effectiveness.
- Disinfectant: What is seen and what goes unnoticed to the human eye. In addition, some detergents have antimicrobial properties that allow them to eliminate all types of germs such as bacteria, viruses, fungi and spores, ensuring not only superficial cleaning, but also
complete disinfection
. More security.
The best detergents to make pure magic when using them
The thing does not end there because for them to be completely perfect they must also have a great power of dragging the water. Elementary. Easy rinsing that prevents certain residues from adhering that may attract more dirt. And if they are hydrolyzing, capable of breaking chemical bonds by adding water to break down organic substances, all the better. In this way they should never fail. And to make it so,
G2 Green
has developed a
complete range of detergents
that bring together all or most of these powers to adapt to any need. From special for laundry to which there is no stain that resists them to
special for tableware
that can with the most embedded dirt. Discover the magic they contain and always… Think big, clean greeen!
