Features Of HY HY-1608A Wetting Agent

  1. Exceptionally low surface tension (<25 mN/m at 0.1% aqueous solution), enabling rapid substrate penetration and uniform wetting on low-energy surfaces.

  2. High hydrolytic and thermal stability, maintaining performance across pH 4–10 and temperatures up to 80°C.

  3. Non-ionic surfactant chemistry ensures excellent compatibility with anionic, cationic, and non-ionic systems without precipitation or cloud point issues.

  4. Low foaming profile suitable for high-shear industrial processes including spray coating, inkjet formulation, and roll-coating operations.

  5. Eco-preferred formulation: APEO-free, biodegradable (OECD 301B compliant), and REACH registered.

Typical Applications Of HY HY-1608A Wetting Agent

  1. Water-based architectural coatings and interior/exterior wall paints.

  2. Industrial maintenance coatings for metal and concrete substrates.

  3. Aqueous inkjet inks for textile, packaging, and signage printing.

  4. Agrochemical adjuvants in herbicidal and fungicidal spray solutions.

  5. Automotive clear coats and primer-surfacer systems requiring defect-free film formation.
