EMULSOGEN EL 540

EMULSOGEN EL 540 is a standard NPE-free emulsifier in various EC formulations. 
EMULSOGEN EL 540 shows excellent emulsification characteristics for many solvents and is not eye-irritating.

EMULSOGEN EL 540 is a nonionic wetting and dispersing agent for organic pigments in dispersions, preparations and coatings. 
This yellowish wax is composed of tristyrylphenol-polyglycolether with approximately 54 moles ethylene glycol. 

EMULSOGEN EL 540 is free of any additional biocide and is used for aqueous pigment preparations, paints and coatings. 
EMULSOGEN EL 540 is suitable for organic pigments and carbon black to produce stable, free flowing pigment preparations with high solid contents. 

EMULSOGEN EL 540 improves the compatibility of pigments and minerals with polymers and binders. 
EMULSOGEN EL 540 prevents skinning of emulsion polymers in paints and improves the shelf life and stability of emulsion paints.

Application of EMULSOGEN EL 540:
Many active agents used for Crop Protection Formulations are formulated as emulsifiable concentrates.
EMULSOGEN EL 540 is a standard NPE-free emulsifier in various EC formulations. 
EMULSOGEN EL 540 shows excellent emulsification characteristics for many solvents.

Guide composition for emulsifiable concentrates:
Active ingredient [ %]: 20 - 90
Solvent: xylene, kerosene [ %]: 0 - 77
Emulsifier [ %]: 3 - 15

The usually used emulsifier consist of two compounds:
Anionic emulsifier compound
Nonionic emulsifier compound

EMULSOGEN EL 540 is a nonionic emulsifier compound and can be used successfully in combination with anionic compound for the preparation of emulsifiable concentrates.

We can recommend as anionic emulsifier compound:
Phenylsulfonat CA
Phenylsulfonat CAL

Benefits of EMULSOGEN EL 540:
Excellent emulsifier,
Not eye-irritating,
Environmentally friendly emulsifier for EC formulations.
