Zonyl FSN 100 is a non-ionic fluorocarbon surfactant with 100% active ingredient content, designed based on an ethoxylated fluorocarbon chain structure. It combines water solubility with compatibility in solvent systems. Its unique fluorocarbon chain provides ultra-low surface tension (as low as <20 mN/m) and maintains stability in complex chemical environments (e.g., acidic, high-salt, hard water conditions). It is widely used in coatings, electronic cleaning, pesticide formulations, and high-end industrial applications, significantly enhancing wetting, dispersion, and leveling properties.•Ultra-Low Surface Tension: The strong hydrophobicity of the fluorocarbon chain, combined with the hydrophilicity of the ethoxy groups, significantly reduces the surface tension of systems (applicable in both aqueous and solvent phases).
•Broad Chemical Stability: Resists pH extremes (1–14), high salt (e.g., seawater), hard water, and organic solvents, avoiding decomposition or inactivation.
•Low Foaming: The molecular structure inhibits foam generation, making it suitable for low-foam applications such as spraying and recirculating cleaning.
•Efficient Wetting and Dispersion: Rapidly penetrates micropores of substrates, reduces the contact angle of droplets, and promotes uniform particle dispersion (e.g., pigments, nanomaterials).
•Leveling Performance Optimization: Reduces defects like orange peel or cratering in coatings/films, improving surface smoothness.
