SURFADONE™ LP-300 WETTING AGENT is sparingly soluble in water (0.002 weight percent) and soluble in most organic solvents. It is a low-foaming, nonionic surfactant with an HLB of 3 and has no critical micelle concentration (CMC). Like its lower homolog, Surfadone™ LP-300 wetting agent interacts with anionic surfactants, forming mixed micelles, which greatly enhances its solubility, resulting in a synergistic surface tension reduction and wetting enhancement. Appropriate combinations of Surfadone™ LP-300 wetting agent and anionic surfactants produce viscous solutions and gels.
