Wetting penetrant WE 3120 is a remarkable product with several notable features and applications:

Outstanding Wetting Performance:

It is highly effective in reducing the surface tension of liquids. This enables the penetrant to spread rapidly and evenly on various surfaces, ensuring thorough wetting of the substrate. Whether it is a smooth or complex surface, WE 3120 can easily access and wet every part, which is crucial for many industrial processes such as coating, printing, and adhesion.

It shows excellent dynamic surface tension reduction properties. This means that it can quickly adapt to changes in the surface characteristics of the material being treated, maintaining a stable and effective wetting effect even in dynamic or challenging conditions.

Low Foaming Characteristics: One of the significant advantages of WE 3120 is its low foaming tendency. In many applications where foaming can cause problems such as interference with the coating process or affecting the quality of the final product, this low foaming property is highly beneficial. It allows for a smooth and efficient operation without the need for excessive defoaming measures.

Versatile Applications:

In the printing industry, it is widely used as a wetting agent in ink formulations. It helps to improve the flow and dispersion of ink pigments, resulting in sharper and more consistent printing results. It also enhances the adhesion of the ink to the printing substrate, improving the durability and quality of the printed matter.

For the adhesives industry, WE 3120 can enhance the wetting of adhesives on the bonding surfaces, thereby increasing the bonding strength and reliability. This is especially important for bonding various materials with different surface properties, ensuring a strong and durable bond.

Additionally, it can be used in other water-based formulations where excellent wetting and low foaming properties are required, such as in certain coatings, paints, and surface treatment processes.

Compatibility and Stability: WE 3120 is compatible with a wide range of materials and formulations commonly used in the relevant industries. It can be easily incorporated into different systems without causing compatibility issues or affecting the stability of the overall formulation. Its stability ensures consistent performance over time, even under different storage and usage conditions.
