APPLICATION DATA - DeTERGE LF-28 at 25°C:
Table 1 shows the stability of DeTERGE LF surfactants at 3 – 5% by weight after storage in caustic and alkaline electrolyte solutions. The data reflects the minimum number of days that the products remained clear and stable.

Table 3. Draves Wetting at 25°C (in seconds) at 1% by Weight:
Table 4. Foam Heights* (in mls) at 1% by Weight:
* Determined via modified Ross-Miles graduated cylinder shake test.
Dynamic Surface Tension:
Dynamic surface tension of the DeTERGE LF series was determined with a SensaDyne QC6000 Surface Tensiometer. The products were tested at 1% by weight in deionized water at ambient temperature.
