UNIFROTH 0144

 

 

Unifroth 0144 is a froth aid/surfactant that can be used in water repellent and fluorochemical finishes. Unifroth 0144 is an excellent stabilizer, is thermally degradable, and does not impart rewetting after curing.

 

PHYSICAL PROPERTIES:

 

Type......................................................... Non-rewetting, thermodegradable surfactant

Appearance.......................................................................... Clear to light amber liquid
Total Solids....................................................................................................... 20
± 1

pH...................................................................................................................... 7 ± 1

Solubility............................................................... Soluble with water in all proportions

Ionic Nature..................................................................................................... Anionic

Storage Stability........................................... One year in a closed container at 40-95°F

 

PERFORMANCE PROPERTIES:

 

·        Excellent emulsifying and stabilizing properties.

·        Does not effect water or oil repellency in fluorochemical finishes.

·        Stabilizes water repellent emulsions with no effect on repellency.

·        Effective wetting agent.

·        Prevents pad roll build-up.

·        Generates stable, uniform foam.

 

APPLICATION DATA:

 

Unifroth 0144 can be utilized as an effective foam-aid.   Suggested starting range is 1-3% o.w.b.  Testing and use data indicates that 2% maximizes foam stability and uniformity.

 

Unifroth 0144 may be used to eliminate pad roll build-up.  Under normal conditions, we recommend 0.1 to 0.5% Unifroth 0144 o.w.b.  This amount will eliminate pad roll build-up and emulsion instability and provide excellent wetting.
