Name: Dow TRITON X-405 Wetting Agent
Brand: Guangzhou Eric Wei Chemical Co., Ltd.

Features Of Dow TRITON X-405 Wetting Agent

Nonionic surfactant based on branched octylphenol ethoxylate chemistry with high hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB ≈ 13.5).
Excellent dynamic surface tension reduction for rapid substrate wetting and penetration, even on low-energy surfaces.
Good compatibility with anionic, nonionic, and cationic systems across a broad pH range (pH 2–12).
Low foaming profile suitable for high-shear industrial processes such as spray coating and inkjet formulation.
Stable in hard water and resistant to electrolyte-induced precipitation.

Typical Applications Of Dow TRITON X-405 Wetting Agent

Agricultural adjuvants for improved foliar spray coverage and active ingredient uptake.
Industrial cleaning formulations including metal degreasers and CIP (clean-in-place) solutions.
Architectural coatings for enhanced leveling, substrate wetting, and pigment dispersion stability.
Inkjet inks and flexographic printing inks requiring low surface tension and jetting reliability.
Agrochemical concentrates and suspension concentrates (SCs) to stabilize dispersed phases.
