Fully demineralized water

Fully demineralized water plays an important role in surface technology, especially in processes that require maximum purity. This is water that has been largely freed of dissolved minerals and salts. This purification process is crucial to ensure that the surface treatment of materials such as metals, glass or semiconductors is free of impurities and unwanted residues.

In surface technology, demineralized water is often used as a rinsing and cleaning medium to thoroughly clean surfaces before and after the coating process. By using demineralized water, impurities that could affect the quality of the coating can be removed. It also minimizes the risk of staining, corrosion or other defects on the surface of the treated material.

Demineralized water is usually produced using various purification and filtration processes such as reverse osmosis, ion exchange and distillation. These processes effectively remove dissolved minerals, salts and other impurities to produce water with a very low level of conductivity.

The use of demineralized water in surface technology helps to improve the quality of surface treatment, make production processes more efficient and extend the service life of coated materials. It is an essential component of many industrial applications where the highest purity requirements apply.
