T-Det® A 1340-50 is an APE-free polymeric surfactant designed for use in emulsion polymerization systems. It can be used alone or in combination with other co-surfactants. It has a unique reaction profile with low levels of polyethylene glycol. This product provides additional stability against viscosity creep, shear thickening, and freeze-thaw separation when post-added to acrylic latexes and is useful for both acrylic and styrene-acrylic latexes. It is a pourable and pumpable liquid that is readily solubilized in water with mild agitation. This product is nonionic, making it compatible with anionic and cationic surfactants.
