- Applications
Excellent detergency:
- Can be used in hard surface cleaners and general cleaners. In formulations that contain alcohol ethoxylates then use BioLoop 84L as a green alternative. Also the SDS classifications will help ensure negative impact on the hazard classification of the end product.
Excellent wetting on glass:- Can be used in a new generation of bio-based glass cleaners.

Technical Details & Test Data
- Foaming Profile
Test method : A 0.1% solution is prepared and aerated for 30 seconds and then stopped. The degree of foaming is assessed initially and then after 1, 3 and 5 minutes.
Conclusion : When compared to our full range of surfactants would be classed a MEDIUM foam surfactant.
- Detergency Profile
Test method : A formulated soil is applied to a painted disk and then aged in an oven. The disk is then soaked in a detergent solution for 10 minutes and then rotated for a further 5 minutes. The % soil removal is then measured.
Results :
Sample % soil removal Blank 20.1 BioLoop 84L 81.5
Conclusion : The % soil removal indicates that BioLoop 84L has a HIGH detergency ranking- Substrate Wetting
Test method : A 0.5% solution is prepared and is dropped onto various substrates. The contact angle is then measured using a goniometer. The angle is measured initially and then after 5 seconds. The lower the angle the better the product wets the substrate.
