Usage Recommendation

T-Det A266-NR behaves similarly to other alcohol ethoxylates in that it has a tendency to gel on contact with water. The product will tolerate up to 30% water before becoming an immobile gel. Adding heat while agitating can minimize the gelling. It is recommended that any concentration of water added to this product be stirred/agitated with heat for an extended period to get the product in solution.
