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
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.
