Non-Ionic Wetting Agent

Chemtex's Non-Ionic Wetting agents are chemical compounds based of non-ionic surfactants that are used for breaking through the suface tension of a soil or surface and make it absorb moisture or water based chemical more easily instead to repelling. Non-Ionic Wetting agents are of liquid nature most commonly. A wetting agent is a surfactant which when dissolved in water, reduces the advancing contact angle, helps in displacing an air phase at the surface, and replaces it with a liquid phase. Many long chain alcohols are seen to show some surfactant properties. Among these the fatty alcohols, cetyl alcohol, stearyl alcohol, and cetostearyl alcohol (consisting predominantly of cetyl and stearyl alcohols), and oleyl alcohol are prominent. Non-Ionic Wetting Agents do not ionize in water. A possible advantage for using Non-Ionic Wetting Agents is that it does not react with other ions in the water, which could lead to formation of a precipitate. Chemtex Speciality Limited is an ISO 9001, ISO 14001 and OHSAS 18001 certified company that specializes in the manufacturing of non ionic wetting agent products. It has also established itself to be among world's renowned multipurpose chemical exporter having its facility in India. Chemtex's greatest business vitality and strength are its technical and manufacturing knowledge and a well developed technical service team.
