Quick T-70B, depending on the application field, the dosage is generally 0.1% to 5% of the total formula (by weight). When using, directly add it to the aqueous phase and stir evenly.

Detailed Description

Quick T-70B (Sodium Dioctyl Sulfosuccinate) is a high-efficiency anionic surfactant, a colorless to light yellow transparent viscous liquid at room temperature, very soluble in water. This product has extremely strong penetrating power (≤5 seconds), a critical micelle concentration (CMC) of 0.68 g/L, surface tension as low as ≤30 mN/m, and excellent stability against acid, alkali, and hard water, so it can be used directly in a wide range of pH and hard water environments.

When using, generally avoid prolonged treatment at high temperature or under strong mechanical shear. Slowly add the product into the aqueous phase while stirring to quickly disperse and dissolve. Since it is a viscous liquid, fluidity decreases at low temperatures in winter. It is recommended to store the material at 15~35°C before use, or pre-warm it with warm water to ensure accurate measurement and uniform dispersion. This product has low foam and is suitable for equipment environments using circulating pumps or spray, avoiding operational issues caused by foam.

This product is compatible with non-ionic, anionic, and other additives, but when compounding with cationic surfactants or high-concentration electrolytes, compatibility tests are recommended in advance. In processes that require mixing with powder raw materials (such as wettable powders, dry cleaning powders), Quick T-70B can be first adsorbed onto a carrier or added by post-spraying.

Application Recommendations

(Note: The following are industry general recommended addition range. The Guoli Chemical product database does not have official recommended addition data for each application field. Actual dosage should be determined through experiments.)

Application FieldRecommended Addition (based on total formula weight)Brief Usage Method
Textile dyeing and printing0.5~3.0 g/L (dye bath)Dilute with water first before adding to the dye bath, use simultaneously with dyes to enhance dyeing rate and levelness.
Pesticide formulations1.0%~5.0% (formulation)Used as wetting and spreading agent in aqueous suspension concentrates and wettable powders; for tank-mix spraying, recommend 0.05%~0.2% (diluted solution).
Coatings and inks0.1%~1.0% (formulation)Add during pigment grinding or paint mixing stage to improve wetting dispersion and substrate spreading.
Industrial cleaning0.5%~3.0% (working solution)Add directly to cleaning solution, suitable for acidic, alkaline, and neutral cleaning systems, quickly stripping oil stains.
Daily chemicals0.2%~2.0% (formulation)Used as a penetration enhancer in detergents, shampoos, etc., simply add by compounding.
Metal surface treatment0.1%~1.0% (bath solution)Add to pickling, phosphating, and other pretreatment bath solutions to eliminate gas film and ensure uniform treatment.
Petroleum extraction0.05%~0.5% (working fluid)Used as wetting reversal agent or cleanup additive, directly added to water injection or fracturing fluid.
Papermaking industry0.1%~1.0% (on dry pulp)Added during internal sizing or coating to promote uniform penetration of chemicals.
Leather processing0.3%~2.0% (on hide weight)Added during wet processing steps such as soaking and degreasing to accelerate chemical penetration.

Precautions

  • Safety protection: This product is harmful if swallowed (LD50 ≈1900 mg/kg), causes skin irritation and serious eye irritation. Wear protective gloves, protective goggles, protective clothing, and use in a well-ventilated area during operation.
  • Storage conditions: Store in a well-ventilated place, keep container tightly closed, avoid high temperature and direct sunlight, and lock the storage area.
  • Emergency treatment: In case of skin contact, immediately wash with plenty of water; in case of eye contact, rinse carefully for several minutes and consult a doctor; if swallowed, do NOT induce vomiting and seek medical attention immediately; if inhaled, move to fresh air. Refer to the product safety label for details.
  • Usage tips: Conduct compatibility tests before compounding with cationic systems; at low temperatures, viscosity increases, so it is recommended to pre-warm the product to restore fluidity before use.
