Description
SKD-S2 – Non-Aqueous Solvent-Based Developer
SKD-S2 is a ready-to-use, solvent-based, non-aqueous developer that provides excellent background contrast. Its application is widely recognized in the nuclear, special alloys, welding, and construction sectors, ensuring high-precision inspections.
Operating Principle
SKD-S2 expels penetrant from discontinuities, forming visible, high-contrast markings. With its fast drying and opaque matte coating, it allows for easy removal after inspection, streamlining the verification process. It is recommended for Type 1 and Type 2 liquid penetrant testing.
Benefits
- Bright white color: Provides excellent background contrast.
- Non-fluorescent: Compatible with visual inspections.
- Fast drying: Reduces test time.
- Easy application: Ready for immediate use.
- Low toxicity formula: Safe for the operator.
- Matte and opaque coating: Ensures clear, easy-to-view indications.
- Easy cleaning: Removes quickly after inspection.
