AKYPO LF 1 is an anionic surfactant specifically designed for low-foaming applications and recommended for vehicle cleaning.
AKYPO LF types in general already improves the rinsing of the emulsion from the metal surface.
As part of a (metal) cleaner AKYPO LF 1 will also support the soil dispersing.
AKYPO LF types are usually combined with EO-PO based non-ionics.
The hydrotropic properties of AKYPO LF 1 will help to make a stable formulation in acid , alkaline and/or high electrolyte circumstances.
AKYPO LF 1 has a short alkyl chain (C8) and moderate degree of ethoxylation; very good acid stability, good alkaline and electrolyte stability.
AKYPO LF products are low-foaming surfactants with high dispersing and hydrotropic properties.
They are a low alkyl chain type and can be used for proteinic, particulate, and oil or grease soiling.
AKYPO LF 1 is a low foaming anionic surfactant - ether carboxylic derivative - used for household, industrial and institutional applications.
AKYPO LF 1 is liquid at room temperature and highly concentrated.
AKYPO LF 1 shows good hydrotropic and dispersing properties being acid-, alkaline- and electrolyte stable.
AKYPO LF1 is a co-surfactant for general detergents and cleaners.
AKYPO LF 1 is pH and hard water stable with hydrotropic and anti-corrosion properties.
Compatible with quaternary compounds, AKYPO LF 1 is peroxide-stable, hydrolysis-stable, hypochlorite-stable, alkaline- and acid-stable.
AKYPO LF types are used singly or in combination as low-foaming surfactants for applications in household, industrial and institutional areas.
In acidic or aqueous solutions, the AKYPO LF types behave like non-ionic surfactants.
In neutralised form they behave like anionic surfactants (this is the so-called crypto-anionic character of alkyl ether carboxylic acids).
AKYPO LF 1 is an anionic, low foaming surfactant with hydrotropic properties.
AKYPO LF 1 is a solubiliser for metalworking fluids and reduces foam stability when combined with foaming surfactants.
In formulations, the AKYPO LF 1 exhibits the support of corrosion prevention; hard water stability and mildness to skin.
