How does ISOPur remove sludge and varnish?
The precursor of sludge and varnish is the oxidation of oil that can be caused by excessive heat, water contamination, aeration, and metal particle contaminants. These oxide insolubles are typically under one micron in size and are highly polar. Being charged, they naturally ground themselves to the internal surfaces of machinery. Once a sticky foundation has been laid, other particles naturally stick as well, and a varnished surface is formed. Sludge is created when water mixes with this sticky surface. ISOPur attacks sludge and varnish by removing these highly polar sub micron particles. BCA removes them so rapidly that they never have a chance to enter the machinery and find a grounding surface. In addition, the particles that do manage to get through on the first pass carry a balanced charge and will therefore not be attracted to a surface.
