Technical Details & Test Data
- Dynamic Surface Tension
- The graph below depicts the dynamic surface tension of 1% by weight DeTERGE CS - 45LF in deionized water as compared to ADPODS.
*ADPODS alkyldiphenyloxide disulfonates
- Chlorine Stability
Testing was conducted to determine chlorine stability in the presence of DeTERGE CS - 45LF at 5% by weight. Samples were stored at ambient temperature and the percent available chlorine was determined over time as shown in the chart below.
- Control: 45% Tap water, 45% sodium hypochlorite (12.5% active), 10% NaOH (50% active)
- Test Formulation: 45% Tap water, 42.5% sodium hypochlorite (12.5% active), 10% NaOH (50% active), 5% DeTERGE CS-45LF
- Foam Height Data
Foam heights using 1% by weight surfactant were measured using a modified Ross-Miles graduated cylinder shake test under the conditions noted in each graph. The data below depicts foam height in deionized water. The foaming trends are similar in 5% active sodium or potassium hydroxide solutions.
