If emulsification time is excessive, penetrant WILL be removed from flaws, making detection impossible. These are excerps from the Metals Handbook, ninth edition. I would suggest, anyone who feels emulsification time is anything less then the most critical time in the post emulsified inspection process, go back to the books. Have a nice day. ----------- Start Original Message ----------- : Hi Diego, I think hydrophilic remover is less hazardous than lipophilic remover.Its remover action is not diluition, it contains surface-active agents so it works by interface contact.The application time is less critical because it removes only excess of penetrant, it doesn't seep into the crack.The washable penetrant will be only excess of penetrant. : YOURS SINCERELY ------------ End Original Message ------------ Follow Ups: Re: hydrophilic remover diego 16:31 May-30-2008 (0) Post a Followup: Name: E-Mail: Subject: Comments: ----------- Start Original Message ----------- : Emulsification time for a specific piece must be established by experimentation.
