Pickling Additives
High-performance additives for industrial pickling processes in electroplating and hot-dip galvanizing
Our Pickling Additives for Industrial Surface Pretreatment
We develop high-performance pickling additives for industrial surface pretreatment in electroplating plants, hot-dip galvanizing facilities and metal processing industries. With AGGRESSID PD Pickling Accelerator and AGGRESSID PD Pickling Degreaser & Inhibitor, DR. HESSE offers perfectly coordinated solutions for faster pickling processes, reliable base metal protection and reproducible pretreatment results.
Our pickling additives are used wherever clean, activated metal surfaces are essential for high-quality electroplating or hot-dip galvanizing. They accelerate the pickling process, support the removal of oil, carbon and scale residues, while protecting the base material against unnecessary metal attack and hydrogen embrittlement.
Whether for reactivating aged pickling baths, extending bath service life or chemically removing zinc and zinc-nickel coatings, AGGRESSID PD improves process stability, operating efficiency and reproducible results throughout industrial surface pretreatment.
