Overview
Thetawet™ FS-8050 is a 50% active, aqueous solution of non-ionic, short chain fluorosurfactant technology. Designed for formulation flexibility and ease of use at low end use concentrations, it delivers exceptional wetting, leveling, and surface tension reduction for low-energy substrates, such as metal, glass, plastic, oily substrates, waxy surfaces, and more. It is compatible with all surfactant types and maintains stability across extreme pH conditions and in the presence of concentrated acids, bases, oxidizing solutions, and hard or soft water. Thetawet™ FS-8050 is ideal for applications such as inks, coatings, adhesives, cleaners, and foam systems.
