Features Of BASF Pluronic PE 3100 Low Foaming Nonionic Surfactant

  1. Exceptionally low foaming profile suitable for high-shear and automated cleaning processes.

  2. Excellent emulsification and solubilization performance in hard water and across broad pH ranges (pH 4–12).

  3. High hydrolytic and thermal stability, ensuring consistent performance in demanding industrial formulations.

  4. Nonionic, ethoxylated polyol-based architecture with low irritation potential and favorable environmental profile (readily biodegradable).

  5. Effective grease and oil removal without compromising substrate compatibility on metals, plastics, and painted surfaces.

Typical Applications Of BASF Pluronic PE 3100 Low Foaming Nonionic Surfactant

  1. Alkaline and neutral-pH industrial cleaners for metal parts washing and CIP (Clean-in-Place) systems.

  2. Formulations for precision cleaning of electronic components and optical lenses.

  3. Additive in aqueous metalworking fluids to enhance lubricity and prevent foam-related pump cavitation.

  4. Key surfactant in low-foam detergent concentrates for institutional and food-processing equipment.

  5. Stabilizer and co-surfactant in specialty agrochemical adjuvants and tank-mix additives.
