Description

Silwet Hydrostable 212 superspreader is an organomodified copolymer that can provide surface tension reduction and superspreading properties to aqueous solutions while remaining stable in formulations from pH 2 – 12.

This product can reduce surface tension in aqueous solutions at use levels up to 1.0% by weight. The typical recommended starting levels are 0.1%. It also assists aqueous solutions to wet most substrates with contact angles near 0/1° on high and low energy surfaces.

Features & Benefits of Silwet Hydrostable 212

  • Antifogging
  • Sheeting
  • Quick-dry
  • Hard water spot elimination
  • Penetration of the solution delivering dissolved materials to otherwise unreachable locations sometimes increasing efficacy of actives

Applications

  • Home care formulations where pH can be controlled between 2 and 12
    • Tub and tile cleaner, Toilet bowl cleaner, Oven cleaners, Rust removers, Drain cleaners, Stain removers, Disinfectants
