Features & Benefits

Industrial Additives Features

Improved Coating

Features

• Emulsion quality: The product produces fine particle emulsions with good wetting power especially suitable for tack and prime applications. Fine particle size distribution also leads to relatively low settlement in the emulsions.
• Easy and safe handling: The low pour point, high flash point and water solubility of Redicote E-5 HF makes it easy and safe to use
• No need for acid: The product is water-soluble. When used as the sole emulsifier the use of acid in the recipe is optional.
• Mixing grade emulsions: The product can be used together with other emulsifiers to produce emulsions for open graded cold mix with improved coating and workability
