Galaxy 799 SP is an anionic surfactant in needle form, which minimizes the dusting. It has excellent foaming power and detergency property. It is also a good emulsifier. It is most effective under alkaline conditions (pH > 7.5). It can be used with other anionic, non-ionic or amphoteric surfactants. However, due to its anionic character, it should not be used with cationic components like cationic surfactants, cationic dyes, etc.

- Shelf Life
- 2 Years
- Storage & Handling Information
- Store the material in a clean, dry place at below 35°C away from moisture, heat and sunlight.
- Keep the bags tightly closed. Since the product is hygroscopic in nature, use the product within a week after opening the bag.
- In the original sealed condition, when stored as suggested, the shelf life of the product is at least two years.
- Slight pH drop is possible over prolonged storage. In case of drop in pH, it is safe to use the material as long as the pH is ≥ 7.0.
- Soft, easily breakable agglomerates may be formed on storage.
- During storage, to avoid lumping, stack maximum 8 bags (non-palletized) and for palletized, single pallet on ground or in pigeon hole or in rack.
- Jumbo bags should be stored singly with crates or in palletized form
