TEGO® STO 85 V is a liquid, non-ionic emulsifier and dispersing additive based on polyoxyethylene-20 sorbitan trioleate.
Typical Applications
TEGO® STO 85 V is used as emulsifier and dispersing additive in a wide range of industrial applications, such as
In case of MWF applications, TEGO® STO 85 V is mainly used for the formulation of environmentally friendly lubricants based on paraffinic mineral oils and hydrocrack oils.
As dispersing additive for pigment concentrates, TEGO® STO 85 V is used for the production of
Additionally TEGO® STO 85 V can be used for production of adhesives & sealant formulations based on TEGOPAC® polymers. TEGO® STO 85 allows to increase the filler content without having negative impacts on mechanical properties of the SMP formulations.
TEGO® STO 85 V is also used as primary or secondary emulsifier for the polymerization of acrylates or PVAc.
For agricultural applications, TEGO® STO 85 V is biocompatible with microbial control agents like Trichoderma spp., Beauveria bassiana, Bacillus spp.
- Metalworking fluids (MWF)
- Concrete release agents
- Agricultural formulations
- Pigment concentrates
- Adhesives & sealants
In case of MWF applications, TEGO® STO 85 V is mainly used for the formulation of environmentally friendly lubricants based on paraffinic mineral oils and hydrocrack oils.
As dispersing additive for pigment concentrates, TEGO® STO 85 V is used for the production of
- Liquid color pastes, which might be either water-based for water-based systems or oil-based to be used for the liquid coloration of thermoplastic polymers instead of solid concentrates
- Pastes of inorganic fillers, carbon blacks and organic pigments
- Solid masterbatches for prewetting of pigments in the production of masterbatches
