Features Of BASF Pluronic PE9400 Low Foaming Nonionic Surfactant

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

  2. High hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB ~18) enabling effective solubilization and emulsification of polar and semi-polar actives.

  3. Thermally stable across a broad pH range (pH 3–11), maintaining performance in acidic, neutral, and mildly alkaline formulations.

  4. Nonionic nature ensures compatibility with anionic, cationic, and amphoteric surfactants without precipitation or destabilization.

  5. EcoVadis-recognized sustainable profile with readily biodegradable polyether backbone and no APEOs, alkylphenols, or heavy metals.

Typical Applications Of BASF Pluronic PE9400 Low Foaming Nonionic Surfactant

  1. Industrial and institutional (I&I) hard-surface cleaners, especially for floor scrubbers and high-pressure washers.

  2. Low-foam detergent formulations for automatic dishwashing machines and conveyor-based parts washers.

  3. Emulsion polymerization stabilizer for acrylic and styrene-butadiene latexes requiring minimal foam interference.

  4. Wetting and dispersing agent in agrochemical concentrates (SC, SE, and OD formulations).

  5. Processing aid in metalworking fluids where foam control and lubricity enhancement are critical.
