- Applications
- ZELEC NK is an effective non-durable antistatic agent for use in textiles, plastics and films. It is dispersible in aqueous systems, but is preferred in solvent systems.
- ZELEC NK can be formulated with a variety of organic solvents and oils and surfactants to make useful water emulsifiable concentrates.
- Usage Rates
ZELEC NK is dispersible at pH 4 - 10. Higher pH’s have poor dispersability and lower pH dispersions are unstable and will separate. Dispersions are milky white at all temperatures up to
the boil. Dispersions are easily prepared by dissolving the product in a small quantity of water at 60 - 80°C (140 - 180°F) then extending it to the proper concentration with warm or cold water using mechanical or manual stirring.
