The main attributes of Hexasol are:


• High power solvent

• Low surface tension (excellent wetting agent)

• Low viscosity: Easy to operate

• Low volatility and fluctuation (good stability)

• Excellent optimized drying time

• Low flammability (safe and reliable)

• High water solubility, especially suitable for water-based formulations

• High compatibility with polar and non-polar solvents

• Dissolves many resins

• Is a very good coupling agent, linking hydrophobic and hydrophilic substances


Product use

Hexasol has been widely used in a number of areas:


Civil and industrial cleaning agent:

• Hexasol is a good coupling agent.

• Hexasol has very low surface tension, and when added to cleaning agents, improves its wettability.

• Hexasol improves the penetration of the cleaner into the soil and remains suspended in water until the flushing step is complete.


Cosmetics and some daily necessities:

• Hexasol's high solubility and coupling properties make it a highly effective cosmetic additive, allowing active products to remain suspended rather than deposited.

• Hexasol can increase product shelf life and improve product appearance.

Paints and coatings:

• Hexasol can help formulations face them: low aromatics, high solids content and water-based coatings.


Water quality

• Hexasol is a low volatile organic compound

• Hexasol has strong dissolving ability and improves the formation of coatings and paint films

• Hexasol has a high boiling point and helps adjust opening hours.


Solvent type

• Hexasol dissolves a wide range of resins

• Hexasol has high solubility and reduces product viscosity

• Hexasol can be combined with other solvents to optimize evaporation rates and improve grading

• Hexasol's extremely low surface tension can help improve the wettability of products formulated on different substrates.
