Features & Benefits

Industrial Additives Features
Features
  • Higher emulsion viscosity: Redicote RM007 is particularly effective for the production of emulsions with higher viscosity and/ or lower binder content
  • Easy to use: Redicote RM007 is a liquid emulsifier that is easy to disperse in water. It is, therefore, suitable for use in emulsion plants with in-line preparation of the soap solution or batch plants.
  • Low use level: Redicote RM007 is a 100% active product based on efficient emulsifiers so effective at low dosage
  • Fast breaking: Emulsions prepared with Redicote RM007 show fast breaking in the field even at low temperatures
