About Oilcap

About Oilcap Hydrocarbon Encapsulator

 

Oilcap literally wraps up oil and grease pollution and stains – by isolating, surrounding and encapsulating the troublesome hydrocarbon molecules at the heart of the problem and rendering them harmless and inert. Awarded the Gold medal for Product and Processes and the Innovation of the Year Award at the London International Inventions Fair in 1997, Oilcap has also received awards and accolades for its environmental achievements in Scandinavia.

 A complex blend of aqueous silicates, Oilcap is at the forefront of the natural and environmentally safe treatment of such difficult problems as oil and grease staining and pollution. It is part of the new wave of Molecular Nanotechnology (MNT), which operates through the natural bonding of chemicals at atomic levels.

Oilcap is:

  • Biodegradable
  • Non-flammable
  • Water-soluble
  • Non-toxic
  • Non-hydrocarbon
  • Fire-suppressant
  • Inert

Composition

OIlcap is based on Sodium Silicate) one of the natural mineral silicates which make up more >Vertical Walls

If the contamination is heavy, use Oilcap undiluted; if light, mix 3 parts Oilcap with 1 part water and follow the process above 

Machinery or metal decks

Dilute 3 parts Oilcap with 2 parts water and spray directly onto the contaminated areas. Vigorously brush any heavily-soiled parts or areas. Leave for 5 to 20 minutes, then wash off and allow to dry. 

Food preparation points and catering kitchens

Mix 3 parts Oilcap with 2 parts water and spray directly onto floors, walls and equipment. Vigorously brush any heavily-soiled parts and areas. Allow to dry for at least 5 and up to 20 minutes, then wash off thoroughly with clean water. 

General Cleaning/Light cleaning and maintenance

Use 3 parts Oilcap to 2 parts water as above. 

Note:  If not rinsed off, Oilcap will leave an insoluble white deposit. This deposit is not toxic, and will disperse naturally (by rain or wind), wear off or be removed by traffic within two weeks.
