Dynax DX4010N.

Dynax DX4010N. is a highly effective and efficient fluorosurfactant, especially designed to provide rapid spreading, wetting and leveling performance to various water-based coating systems, such as paints, inks, floor polishes, etc., on low surface tension substrates that are difficult to wet out. DX4010N provides both superior dynamic and equilibrium surface tensions compared to conventional surfactants including fluorochemical and silicone surfactants: it quickly lowers the surface tension of aqueous solutions down to 16 dynes/cm at a very low concentration. DX4010N can be used without a de-foaming agent because of its low foaming tendency.

Functions: Leveling Agent, Surfactant, Surfactant (Cationic), Wetting Agent

DX4010N is a minimal skin irritant.
DX4010N is a minimal irritant to eyes.
The acute oral LD50 of albino rats is greater than 5000 mg/kg.

Precautions and First Aid

DX4010N should be handled with good industrial precautions. Safety goggles and rubber gloves, as well as protective clothing suitable to avoid skin contact should be worn. In case of contact with eyes, flush eyes with plenty of water and consult a physician. In case of skin contact, wash skin with plenty of water and soap.

Storage & Handling

Storage

DX4010N should be stored at temperatures above 5oC. If frozen or a solid phase separates out, warm the product to room temperature and mix it well before use. Freezing and thawing will not affect the properties of the product or its performance.
