General description
Application
- Spreading on and penetration into thin, permeable print media: application to ink-jet printing.: This study explores the dynamics of spreading and penetration of liquids on thin, permeable media, focusing on applications in ink-jet printing. The research addresses the role of surfactants, like TERGITOL™ 15-S-5, in modifying the interfacial properties to optimize the print quality and efficiency (Daniel RC, et al., 2006).
Features and Benefits
- Excellent emulsifier & detergent
- Aids in rinseability of solvent-based systems
