FLUORO
SURFACTANTS PRODUCT OVERVIEW:
ADDITIVES HEXAFOR® surfactants are highly efficient surface-active agents based on
short perfluorinated chains. They are especially designed to provide rapid
spreading, wetting and levelling properties to a wide range of water and
solvent borne systems, such as detergents, paints, varnishes, inks, waxes,
floor polishes, adhesives, batteries.

[DYNES/CM]
16,9 Architectural coatings, Floor finishes, Anti-blocking agent, oil repellence properties, dirty pick-up
Waxes, Polishes resistance, wetting and levelling agent.
17,9 Inks, Paints, Adhesives, Polish Reduces surface energy of water-based floor finishes, waxes and
polishes. Low foam formation.
17,9 Paints, Adhesives, Anti-fog, Cleaners Reduces surface tension at very low concentration, stable in acidic
and alkaline medium. Used in anti-fogging formulations
24,8 Polish, Paint, Wood coating Flow and levelling agent in paints, adhesives, caulks, architectural
coatings, inks.
17,9 Inks, Paints, Adhesives, Polish Reduces surface energy of water-based floor finishes, waxes and
polishes.
- Slip and levelling agent. For baking enamels based on alkyd, acrylic or polyester resins.
Car refinish paint. Very soluble in hydroxyl resins for 2K coating.
Air-drying alkyd systems.
15,2 Polish, Paint, Wood coating Reduces surface energy at very low concentrations. In wood coatings,
it helps the varnish to overcome surface contamination defects at
very low concentration (0,02%).
20,3 Inks, Paints, Adhesives Solvent-free wetting and dispersing additive. Aqueous coating
systems. Printing inks and liquid colour masterbatches.
Stable aqueous effect of pigment dispersions.
20,5 Adhesives, Inks Flow and levelling agent in paints, adhesives, caulks, architectural
coatings and inks.
18,2 Cleaners, Paint Wetting and dispersing additive with low to moderate
foam formation.
18 Paints, Coil Coating Improves wetting, enhances levelling, reduces cratering.
Compatible with most aqueous-based waxes and polishes.
18,7 Cleaners Cleaners for glass and hard surfaces.
It is "ultimately biodegradable" as defined by annex III of the
European Regulation 648/2004/EC on detergents.
17,6 Inks, Paints, Adhesives, Polish It is stable in acidic, basic, and in water with high hardness.
Excellent wetting and levelling agent.
17,6 Inks, Coil Coating, Polish Reduces surface energy of water-based floor finishes,
waxes and polishes.
- Foam stabilizer Reduces surface tension. Improves wetting and levelling.
Reduces cratering, fish-eyes effect and orange-peel effect.
At the right dosage it is used as foam stabilizer.
- Paints Provides both surface water and oil repellence and chemical
resistance to the resulting coated film.
23,5 Wood Coating, Paints, Inks Improves cleanability of oily agents and provides oil repellence to flat
architectural paints and waterborne coatings. Provides good dirt pick
up resistance (DPR) in exterior latex paints.
