TAGAT® V 20 is a non-ionic emulsifier based on a POE-20 glycerol oleoricinoleate.
The low foaming emulsifier TAGAT® V 20 is used in a wide range of applications such as:
• Metal working fluids (MWF)
• Concrete release agents
• Textile auxiliary formulations
• Pulp and paper defoamers
In case of metalworking application, TAGAT® V 20 is mainly used as primary emulsifier for the formulation of environmentally friendly lubricants based on vegetable (e. g. rape seed oil, sun flower oil, canola oil) and synthetic ester oils (e. g. trimethylol propane trioleate) as well as for combinations of these oils with mineral oils.
If combined with alcohol ethoxylates or fatty acid alkanol amides, TAGAT® V 20 can be used as co-emulsifier for the formulation of purely mineral oil based metal working flu ids.
