Formulating with surfactants

Surfactants are the working core of most cleaning products. They lower surface tension so water can wet the surface, lift soil and hold it in suspension until it is rinsed away. The right blend controls foam, detergency, mildness, viscosity and cost.

Tell us the application and the finished product this is going into. We will confirm the grade is compatible, stable and cost-effective in your formulation, and advise on alternatives where they would perform better.
