Cleaning agents and surface treatments are specialized chemicals, solutions, and additives used to clean and prepare surfaces. They are available in a variety of forms, including aerosols, gels, liquids, powders, and tablets. Many cleaning agents and surface treatments consist of aqueous solvents, terpene, oil, and special compounds such as waxes. Volumetric rate, dilution rate, or weight addition determine both the relative strength and amount required. Cleaning agents and surface treatments are applied with immersion or soak methods, spray processes, pressure washers, ultrasonic cleaners, clean-in-place (CIP, C-I-P) methods, and manual or hand scrub techniques. Over time, biodegradable cleaning agents and surface treatments decompose into non-toxic components. Semiconductor, optics, pharmaceutical, medical or biotech applications often require critical or residue free materials. 

Cleaning agents and surface treatments include cleansers, strippers, degreasers, detergents, and abrasives. They also include additives such as rinse aids and inhibitors, and surface activators or primers that trigger curing or enhance bonding. Examples of disinfectants and sanitizers include biocides, germicides, sporicides, insecticides, pesticides, viricides, and repellents. Passivators and deactivators are cleaning agents and surface treatments that protect metal surfaces or deactivate chemically active layers. Etchants, pickles and bright dips corrosively attack surfaces to remove scale, oxidized metal layers, or damaged surface material. Descalers, desmutters, deoxidizers or mineral removers eliminate films or scales such as hard water deposits, urine scale, organic soils and metal oxides. Industrial cleaners are acidic, neutral, or alkaline and remove soot, rust, corrosion, and carbon.
