Features Of HY HY-1608 Wetting Agent

  1. Ultra-low surface tension for rapid substrate penetration and uniform wetting on low-energy surfaces.

  2. Excellent compatibility with aqueous systems, including acrylic, polyurethane, and epoxy dispersions.

  3. Non-ionic formulation ensures stability across broad pH range (4–12) and resistance to electrolytes.

  4. Low foaming profile suitable for high-shear industrial coating and ink manufacturing processes.

  5. REACH-compliant and free of APEOs, formaldehyde, and alkylphenols.

Typical Applications Of HY HY-1608 Wetting Agent

  1. Water-based architectural and industrial coatings.

  2. Flexographic and gravure printing inks.

  3. Textile printing pastes and pigment dispersions.

  4. Agrochemical suspension concentrates (SCs).

  5. Concrete admixtures and construction chemical formulations.
