A sintered silicon carbide has a high density and only small amounts of organic and inorganic impurities on the surface and in the vicinity of the surface, i.e., a density of 2.9 g/cm2 or more and an amount of each impurity smaller than 1.0×1011 atoms/cm2 on the surface and in the vicinity of the surface. A method for cleaning sintered silicon carbide in a wet condition comprises treating sintered silicon carbide in a step of dipping into a quasi-aqueous organic solvent, a step of dipping into an aqueous solution of an ammonium compound, a step of dipping into an aqueous solution of an inorganic acid and a step of dipping into pure water. Organic and inorganic impurities present on the surface and in the vicinity of the surface of the sintered silicon carbide are removed easily in accordance with the method. |

The present invention relates to a method for minimizing the buildup of set gypsum on a tool used to apply a calcium sulfate hemihydrate-containing composition to a surface as well as to a method for cleaning a tool having set gypsum deposited thereon. The method for cleaning a tool having set gypsum deposited thereon comprises the steps of (a) contacting the tool with a cleaning solution having a pH of less than about 7, said cleaning solution which comprises a non-calcium phosphate, water, and, optionally, a pH modifier; (b) optionally agitating the solution; (c) removing the tool from the cleaning solution; and (d) rinsing the tool with water. The method for minimizing the buildup of set gypsum on a tool further comprises step (e) using the tool to apply a calcium sulfate hemihydrate-containing composition. An additional step (f), flushing the tool with water, may also be employed. Optionally, steps (a) through (e) or (a) through (f) may be repeated during the application of the calcium sulfate hemihydrate-containing composition. Examples of non-calcium phosphates which may be used in the cleaning solution are sodium, potassium, or ammonium salts such as tetrasodium pyrophosphate, tetrapotassium pyrophosphate and sodium tripolyphosphate. |
