The hydrotrope efficiency was determined by titrating the hydrotrope into a solution of 8% builder (composed of 30% sodium metasilicate, 30% sodium tripolyphosphate and 40% sodium carbonate) and 2% SYNPERONIC LF/RA 270.
Solubility
MULTITROPE 1250A is compatible in the following systems:
- Soluble in 10% sodium hydroxide.
- Soluble in 20% potassium hydroxide.
- Soluble in 20% tetrapotassium pyrophosphate.
Stability
MULTITROPE 1250A is compatible in stable sodium hypochlorite and can be used in a wide range of cleaning formulations containing sodium hypochlorite.
MULTITROPE 1250A does not affect the stability of the sodium hypochlorite as the following graph illustrates:
