Fluoroaliphatic Betaine Fluorosurfactant |
| |
| |
MASURF® FS-330 is characterized as a 30% active fluoroaliphatic betaine fluorosurfactant in a water/isopropanol solution. With typical use levels of 50-500ppm, MASURF FS-330 is effective at very low concentrations, and together with traditional hydrocarbon surfactants, can contribute properties not possible with either material alone.
MASURF FS-330 is a very effective at reducing surface tension, in aqueous acids, bases and polar solvents. FS-330 is high foaming amphoteric fluorosurfactant with high hard water tolerance, contributing exceptional foaming, wetting, spreading and leveling properties to a wide range of systems.
As an amphoteric surfactant, FS-330 exhibits high electrolyte tolerance when used in Alkaline Cleaners, and in Mining Operations such as flotation, wetting, penetration and leaching. With high surface activity at low concentrations, when used in Photographic emulsions, Coatings and Polishes, FS-330 provides exceptional surface wetting and leveling for high gloss and durability.
Compare to Fluorad® FC-100, Zonyl® FSK and Lodyne® S-100.

MASURF FS-330 Furniture Polish is a low cost, stable, single vessel formulation that does not require homogenization. The addition of very small amounts of MASURF FS-330 significantly improves the gloss and rub-out performance of this formula. MASURF FS-330 is very efficient and effective at lowering interfacial tension to change microemulsion performance characteristics in this formula and others.
Masurf FS-Fluorosurfactant evaluation guidelines-
Masurf FS-Fluorosurfactants are effective at very low concentrations, typically 50-500 ppm, and can act synergistically with hydrocarbon and/or silicone surfactants. Evaluate in aqueous formulations at 0.1% active Masurf FS-Fluorosurfactant initially, then optimize by successively reducing the FS concentration by ½.
Masurf FS-Fluorosurfactants and Masurf FP-Fluoropolymers do not contain PFOS. Masurf FS and FP products are manufactured with telomerization process fluoroaliphatic intermediates that do not contain, release or have been shown to degrade to perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS).
