Harcros Foamer LLF

Harcros Foamer LLF is a non-aqueous ammonium ether sulfate concentrate. It is a viscous liquid that thins readily with warming. This product is typically diluted with water and a co-solvent to make aqueous cutbacks and finished formulations. This anionic surfactant is based on a short-chain alcohol ethoxylate and is able to produce copious amounts of foam in both fresh water and brine. It is stable in both neutral and alkaline aqueous media and is suitable for use as a hard surface cleaner and wetting agent.

Compatibility

Foamer LLF is compatible with anionic and nonionic surfactants. It should not be mixed with concentrated oxidizing agents or reducing agents, as the mixture of these compounds with organic compounds form a potentially explosive mixture. Foamer LLF will decompose under acidic, aqueous conditions.
