Non Ionic Wetting Agent

Q: How can the Non Ionic Wetting Agent be applied in textile and leather industries?

A: This wetting agent is typically added to water-based baths during textile processing, scouring, dyeing, or leather treatment phases. Its compatibility with most surfactants allows for integration at various stages to improve the wetting and penetration of treatments, leading to more even processing outcomes.

Q: What benefits does using a non-ionic wetting agent offer over ionic alternatives?

A: Non-ionic wetting agents provide broad compatibility with other formulation components (anionic, cationic, or nonionic), less sensitivity to water hardness, and generally exhibit lower foaming. These qualities help maintain process stability and improve effectiveness in diverse industrial processes.

Q: When should the wetting agent be added during the formulation process?

A: It is best to add the wetting agent at the beginning of the process, in the aqueous phase, to ensure even distribution and optimal wetting performance throughout the processing cycle.

Q: Where should the Non Ionic Wetting Agent be stored to maintain its stability?

A: The agent should be stored in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, in its original HDPE drum packaging, to maintain chemical stability and preserve its shelf life of up to 12 months.

Q: What precautions should be taken during handling and storage?

A: Ensure storage in well-ventilated, shaded environments, and avoid exposure to extreme temperatures or direct sunlight. Use protective gloves and eyewear during handling. Always refer to the product MSDS for comprehensive safety guidance.

Q: Is this agent suitable for biodegradable formulations and environmentally conscious applications?

A: Yes, this non-ionic wetting agent is biodegradable and designed to support sustainable industrial practices without compromising on performance.

Q: What packaging sizes are available for industrial supply?

A: The Non Ionic Wetting Agent is supplied in 50 kg and 200 kg high-density polyethylene (HDPE) drums, facilitating bulk storage and easy handling for industrial users.
