Spreading and leveling agents
- The polyether-modified trisiloxanes are super spreader and can be used in various applications. It does not matter if used for enhancing the spreading on the plant leafs of fungicide/pesticide or fertilizer solutions or used to reduce the amount of irrigation water by improving the water distribution. The very low surface tension of this chemistry guarantees highest performance.
- Key Features
- World class surface tension reduction and spreading on the plant leaf.
- Homogenous distribution in the sprayed liquid promoting quicker active penetration.
- Industry-leading actives level with no diluent commonly used in these superwetters.

- Applications
Hansa ADD 1055 is commonly used as an additive in plant care formulations to improve wetting, leveling and distribution. The product can be also used as a spray tank additive to achieve the same effects. HANSA ADD 1055 can be added to the spray tank at a level of 0.025 - 0.100 %. In pesticide or leaf fertilizer formulations the concentration should be chosen correspondly. It is used as a surfactant for universal formulation.
