DePHOS™ 8038

1 of 14 products in this brand
DePHOS™ 8038 is the acid form of an anionic phosphate ester-based surfactant. It is dispersible in water but becomes fully soluble when neutralised. In aqueous solutions DePHOS™ 8038 exhibits excellent wetting and dispersing properties and, when neutralised with amines and alkanolamines, has good corrosion inhibiting properties for ferrous metals. It also acts as a low foam detergent and wetting agent stable in alkaline solutions. In both aqueous and non-aqueous applications DePHOS™ 8038 acts as a dispersant and anti-wear additive.
