AntiPro EP-3M
AntiPro EP-3M is a very low-foaming surfactant system that is readily soluble in 50% caustic soda solutions without the need for prolonged mixing or heating. AntiPro EP-3M contributes to quick dynamic surface tension lowering resulting in fast wetting and spreading on various hydrophobic substrates. AntiPro EP-3M provides extremely low foam properties making this product suitable for many industrial cleaning processes.

- Formulation Tips
For best results AntiPro EP-3M should be formulated at a use level of 600 ppm (or 0.060% by weight) use level in the cleaner's final working solution.. For example, if a 50% Caustic Soda-Based Cleaner Concentrate is designed to be diluted to a 3% active sodium hydroxide level (which would indicate a 6% solution of 50% sodium hydroxide in water) then 1.00% AntiPro EP-3M would need to be added to the Caustic Soda-Based Cleaner Concentrate in order to have a 600 ppm (0r 0.060% by weight) level of AntiPro EP-3M in the final use dilution with water.
