Surmax CS-521 is used in highly alkaline systems to impart exceptional cleaning and low foaming properties at temperatures of < 60 C (140 F). Surmax® CS alkaline stable surfactants are soluble and stable in 30% sodium hydroxide and high levels of other alkaline builders. These surfactants are used to formulate alkaline detergent concentrates for metal cleaning, food plant cleaning, and transportation cleaning. They can be used in liquid concentrates as well as in dry or powder formulations.
