Ethynyl glycol wetting agent XR-465
Property Summary: Ethynyl glycol ethoxylate, HLB=13, highly hydrophilic, 100%, reduced static and dynamic tension, FDA and EPA compliant, solvent and APE free.
Product Characteristics:
XR- 465 is a Gemini nonionic surfactant with excellent hydrophilic, wetting and low foaming properties. It is generally used as a wetting agent to reduce the dynamic surface tension and static surface tension of the system, and improve its solubility and compatibility in aqueous coatings, aqueous inks and adhesives.

Typical Applications
1. water-based coatings, adhesives, inks, varnishes
2. Wetting/reducing surface tension (dynamic static)
3. for surface defects require more strict coating film, can prevent shrinkage, pinhole, fish eye
4. Effectively eliminate micro bubbles and low bubbles in the system, and inhibit the foaming performance of water-based system
Application matters
1. recommended addition amount 0.1-2%. 2.
2. High speed stirring is required for 30 minutes during use
