VICTAWET® 12
VICTAWET® 12 is a non-ionic, low-foaming, organic phosphate ester, wetting agent that is effective in both acidic and alkaline binders used in the investment casting process.
Application | Improved wettability of patterns |
Features | This provides good wetting of waxes, fast wetting-in of slurry refractories and does not degrade slurry life. It also has good dispersing and emulsifying properties and is stable in both acidic and basic pHs. |
