Recommended Uses & Known Applications

• LIALET 125-3 is a raw material for preparation of high active matter ethers sulfates aqueous solutions having low viscosity.
• Due to its low number of EO (low HLB value), it is mainly used as a co-emulsifier agent for W/O or O/W emulsions in combination with anionic or non-ionic surfactants with high HLB value.
• LIALET 125-3 is a lubricant with anti-static properties in spooling of cotton, acrylic and mixed polyesters/cotton yarns.

Storage and Handling

• LIALET 125-3 should preferably be stored in stainless steel tanks. It is suggested to keep the product at temperature below 40°C,
• it is preferable to avoid heating above 60°C and to store under nitrogen in order to minimize yellowish phenomena.
• LIALET 125-3 is a cloudy liquid at room temperature and it becomes homogeneous and transparent at temperature about 35°C. LIALET 125-3 becomes a solid wax at temperature lower than 6°C. At room temperature LIALET 125-3 is not water soluble.
• Shelf-life is 36 months from production date for product in its original and sealed packaging.
