Example of use
DEHYPON® LS 531 is a low foaming surfactant intended for domestic, industrial and institutional cleaners. Due
to the end-capped structure, the product is alkali- and acid-stable. DEHYPON® LS 531 is suitable as a low
foaming component for alkaline powder cleaners as well as for liquid formulations based on phosphoric acid.

Possible application fields are:

- bottle cleaning
- automatic dishwashing
- tank / container cleaning
- drum cleaning
- metal degreasing
For these applications DEHYPON® LS 531 offers the following main advantages:
-effective foam reduction in the presence of dirt, lable glues and food residues
-stable in high alkaline media at elevated temperatures
-high wetting power, good cleansing behaviour
-no negative influence on the applicational properties by water hardness
