New Bio-based Substrate Wetter for Aqueous Systems
When compared to the standard sulphosuccinate (Lanwet JH1), Lansperse SUN10 showed comparable wetting properties but with the added benefit of very low foam generation. Additionally, the favourable labelling of Lansperse SUN10 makes it a compelling choice for use as a substrate wetter in a wide range of coating applications.
