Technical Information
Cretum BE-100 is a benzyl endcapped low foam nonionic surfactant with excellent wetting and detergency properties, exhibiting high biodegradability and low aquatic toxicity. Cretum BE-100 is characterized by high thermal and chemical stability, with effective wetting performance of low energy surfaces. With excellent detergency and dispersant activity, Cretum BE100 is widely used in applications ranging from metal and parts cleaning, to metal working fluids and oilfield demulsifiers. Use Cretum BE-100 as a standalone surfactant or with high HLB nonionic surfactants, amphoteric, cationic and anionic surfactants.
Use Cretum BE100 as a grease cutting emulsifier in Degreasers, Pine Oil and d-Limonene Cleaners, and a road film breaking penetrating detergent in Vehicle Cleaners
