T-Det® A 1320-8 is an 80% active, APE-free polymeric surfactant designed for use in emulsion polymerization systems. It can be used alone as the main emulsifier or in combination with other co-surfactants. It has a unique and proprietary reaction profile that results in low levels of polyethylene glycol, which can cause problems in latex production and post-processing. This product can be added after the production of acrylic latexes to provide additional stability against issues such as viscosity creep, shear thickening, and freeze-thaw separation. This surfactant is useful for both acrylic and styrene-acrylic latexes.

T-Mulz® A 139 PE is an APE free anionic surfactant primarily used for acrylic, stirene/acrylic and vinyl/acrylic latexes in emulsion polymerization. It can be used as a primary surfactant, or post-added to improve gloss retention, provide particle size control, corrosion inhibition and improved adhesion.

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.

T-Det® A 1330-5 is a 50% water cutback of an alcohol based surface active agent produced by the reaction of tridecyl alcohol with 30 moles of ethylene oxide. It is a clear liquid at room temperature. Its nonionic structure makes it compatible with anionic surfactants and it is stable in the presence of acids, bases, and salts.

Harcryl® 1228 is a unique, functional, acrylic monomer consisting of mono and di-phosphate esters of 2-Hydroxyethylmethacrylate. The ratio of mono-alkyl to di-alkyl phosphate allows Harcryl® 1228 to be easily incorporated into a variety of polymer systems. The polarity of Harcryl® 1228 provides for application in hydrophilic formulations as well. The primary use area for Harcryl® 1228 is emulsion polymerization and it is inhibited with 400ppm of added hydroquinone.

T-Det® A 1330-7 is a 70% active polymeric surfactant without APE (alkylphenol ethoxylates), made for use in emulsion polymerization systems. It can act as a standalone primary emulsifier or be used with other co-surfactants. Its special reaction profile reduces the levels of polyethylene glycols, which can cause problems in latex production and post-processing. This product can be added later in the production process of acrylic latexes to improve stability against changes in viscosity, thickening under stress, and separation during freeze-thaw cycles. This surfactant is suitable for both acrylic and styrene-acrylic latexes.

T-Det® A 1340-7 is an APE-free, 70% active polymeric surfactant designed for use in emulsion polymerization systems. It can be used as the primary emulsifier or with co-surfactants and has a unique reaction profile with low levels of polyethylene glycol. This product provides stability against viscosity creep, shear thickening, and freeze-thaw separation when post-added to acrylic latex. It is useful for both acrylic and styrene-acrylic latex.

T-Det® A 1340 is a polymeric surfactant that is APE-free and designed for use in emulsion polymerization systems. It can be used alone or in combination with other co-surfactants, and it has a unique reaction profile with low levels of polyethylene glycol. This product can be post-added to acrylic latexes to provide stability against viscosity creep, shear thickening, and freeze-thaw separation. T-Det® A 1340 is useful for both acrylic and styrene-acrylic latexes and is a solid that melts at 47°C. It can be solubilized in water with mild agitation.
