Surface Tension Properties Of Deionic 100-VLF
  • The dynamic surface tension of DeIONIC 100-VLF was determined at 0.1% by weight in distilled water using a SensaDyne QC6000 Tensiometer.
  • The graph below compares our low HLB wetting agents to two acetylenic diols which are commonly used as low foaming wetting agents.
