What is a Colloid Cleaner?

To learn the nature of a Colloid cleaner, you should first know what ALL IN -1 is not. It is not a soap, detergent, or petroleum solvent. It is non-toxic and has no flash point.

What ALL IN -1 Colloid Cleaner is, is a homogeneous blend of colloids, sequestrants, surfactants and hyper-wetting agents that become super-active when processed together. The cleaning action is unique and can only be related to the reaction of the atom in an atomic explosion, wherein the ceaseless random movements of the atoms taking place in ALL IN -1 actually lifts, separates, and holds in separation the oils, grease, dust, soils, etc. which have been penetrated by ALL IN -1 Colloid Cleaner.

The properties of colloids were first documented in the search to find a biodegradable substance that would break up oil slicks on oceans. Through the research of why such products could break up grease and oil and hold them in separation, it was learned that colloids have minute particles (0.000000001cm) called micelles that, when combined with water, break the surface tension to make water super wet. That same action allows the micelles to penetrate grease, oil and dirt and hold them in suspension in the super-wet water; in effect making them dissolve in water.

Since ALL IN -1 simply penetrates into the grease, oil and other “dirt” and stirs things up, the design is like no other cleaner and will continue to work as long as there is moisture to work with. Fresh water or salt water, combined with other solvents or alone, ALL IN -1 will continue to clean.

ALL IN -1 Colloid Cleaner is an extremely safe, all purpose cleaner that is: completely people safe, no effects from over-exposure, no special storage requirements, non-hazardous, non-flammable, non-toxic, non-fuming, non-caustic and 99% biodegradable within 21 days.

ALL IN -1 cleans: walls, wall coverings, tile, floors, sports equipment, doors, desks, counters, tables, chairs, cabinets, office equipment, railings, woodwork, bathroom walls, sinks, tubs, light fixtures, plastics, cars, trucks, boats, planes, degreases motors, bilges, machinery, lawn equipment, cleans ovens, stove tops, hoods, filters, refrigerators, freezers, hand cleaners, garage floors, fabrics, upholstery, carpets, deodorises and cleans pet stains from carpets and most anything that water will not harm.

ALL IN -1 is excellent to wash fruits and vegetables to remove residue and dirt before cooking.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION OF

ALL IN -1 COLLOID CLEANER

ALL IN -1 Colloid Cleaner = Safety! ALL IN -1 Colloid cleaner is completely ‘people safe’ and will not harm or dry out skin. There are no effects from over-exposure. No emergency or first aid procedures are required except if splashed into eyes, flush with water. No special equipment or protection devices are needed when using ALL IN -1 Colloid Cleaner. ALL IN -1 Colloid Cleaner does not require any special precautions for handling or storage.

ALL IN -1 Colloid Cleaner is NON-HAZARDOUS, NON-FLAMMABLE, NON-TOXIC, NON-EXPLOSIVE, NON-FUMING AND NON-CAUSTIC.

ALL IN -1 Colloid Cleaner is safe on plastics, fabrics, paints, leathers, metal, wood, glass, ivory and ceramics when used as directed. ALL IN -1 may be used on anything that is safe in water.

ALL IN -1 Colloid Cleaner may be used in hard, soft or salt water and is ecologically safe.

ALL IN -1 contains no phosphates, nitrates, N.A., enzymes, sulfates, sulphonates, caustics, or other known pollutants.

ALL IN -1 Colloid Cleaner is readily biodegradable. Biodegradability refers to the breaking down and returning of a substance to nature. However, the word “biodegradable” means nothing by itself, as all materials will eventually return to a natural state. The key is how soon and how long. When a substance biodegrades too quickly it becomes a “bio stimulant” and as in the case of phosphates, becomes a pollutant aging the waters by using too many bacteria too quickly, this is called eutrophication, which is what has happened to the Great Lakes of North America. When a substance biodegrades in excess of the optimum time of twenty one (21) days, it is considered a hard chemical. These hard chemicals resist microorganisms and persist in the environment for many years. DDT is an example of a hard chemical. These are generally very soluble in fats and when ingested in food can be dangerous to our health.

Where phosphates bio degrade in 24 hours, Mercury takes over 100 years to bio degrade. Therefore, to say that a thing is “biodegradable” or bio degrades is incomplete and must be clarified by the time period in which the biodegradation occurs. ALL IN -1 Colloid Cleaner bio degrades 99% in twenty one (21) days which is right along the optimum standards published by Robert L. Bunch and Cecil W. Chambers, Journal of Water Pollution Control Federation 39, 181, 1967. Because ALL IN -1 Colloid Cleaner is 99% biodegradable in twenty one (21) days, it will help preserve our precious water resources.

PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF A COLLOID CLEANER

It is an amber coloured liquid having a mild and pleasant odour and a viscosity of 100cps (centipoise). The pH is 7-8 and boiling point is 94oC. The product is non-toxic and has no flash point.

ALL IN -1 Colloid Cleaner is 99.935% water soluble with 0.65% insoluble matter. The vapour pressure at 20%C is 2.26kpa. The specific gravity is 1.013 grams per litre with a surface tension of 29.5 (dynes per CM at 20%C).

ALL IN -1 Colloid Cleaner may be mixed with alkalis, certain types of salts, certain types of acids and petroleum solvents for those jobs that may require special applications.

ALL IN -1 Colloid Cleaner is not a soap, detergent or petroleum solvent.

ALL IN -1 Colloid Cleaner is a homogeneous blend of colloids, sequestrants, surfactants and hyper-wetting agents that become Super Active when processed together. The cleaning action is unique and can only be related to the reaction of the atom in an atom explosion. The ceaseless random movement of the atoms taking place in the products actually lifts, apparatus and holds in separation the oils, greases, dirts, soils etc. which have been penetrated by ALL IN -1 Colloid Cleaner. Although we refer to ALL IN -1 as a cleaner, it is not soap or a detergent so it’s use is NOT limited to just cleaning.

Since the colloids simply penetrate into solids and stir things up, their design is like no other cleaner and will continue to work as long as there is moisture to work with. Although they work equally well in fresh or salt water, water is a prime factor in their cleaning processes.

Since colloids work in this unusual manner, time is important. Therefore, we must relearn our basic cleaning methods to allow for “dwell” time or time to allow the colloids to lift and separate. Occasionally, or on heavy soil, agitation will also be needed to assist the cleaning process and speed up the action.

If you think of cleaning as a pie cut into four pieces which include time, chemical, energy, and heat then you can visualise how cleaning works. Cleaning takes all four pieces, but the size of the pieces can be adjusted. If you make chemical a smaller piece, you will have to increase the other three pieces or at least one of them to compensate for the smaller amount of chemical. So, if you decide to decrease the amount of chemical you will perhaps increase the agitation by using a brush, or increase the heat by using a steam cleaner with a power jet spray. If you do not increase ether of these pieces, then you must allow additional “dwell” time to compensate for the decrease in chemical. This formulation works for each of the pieces of pie. Increase the chemical and you can decrease the time, energy, or the heat, or all three.
