GENAPOL EP 0244 is a fatty alcohol alkoxylate used as a low-foaming surfactant and wetting agent. It is biodegradable and readily dispersible in water without forming a gel phase, resulting in a cloudy solution. It reduces surface tension in coating formulations and improves adhesion, making it suitable for use in industrial cleaning, pigment pastes, aqueous paints, coatings, and adhesives.
