Recommended Uses & Known Applications
  • TRIDAC ISO-3 is a lubricant with anti-static propertes.
  • Due to its low number of EO (low HLB value), TRIDAC ISO-3 is 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.
  • TRIDAC ISO-3 can be used as raw material for preparation of carboxylates, phosphonates and fatty esters with good lubricant performances on synthetic fibers.
