Function
The nonionic emulsifier Emulvin® WA increases both the chemical and mechanical stability of the latex
compounds.
Product description
Composition: aromatic polyglycol ether
Appearance: light yellow to brown liquid
Property Nominal value Unit Test method
pH value (10 % aqueous) 6.0 ± 1.0 --- DIN 19 268
Cloud point (5 % aqueous) 65 ± 2 °C DIN EN 1890
Water content ≤ 0.5 % DIN 51 777
Use
Mode of action: Emulvin® WA is a surface-active agent which serves both to emulsify oily materials
that are insoluble in water and give mechanical and chemical stability to polymer
dispersions.
It is also used as an ingredient of heat-sensitizing systems for latex, especially in
combination with Coagulant WS.
Processing: As delivered, Emulvin® WA has a high viscosity. Hence for use in a latex, it is
important to dilute Emulvin® WA with water to a concentration of 20 or 25 % before
adding it to the compound. In its diluted form, dispersion in the latex is much quicker
and therefore the compound is immediately more stable against mechanical and
chemical influences.
Dosage: In a heat-sensitized mixture, the level of addition lies between 0.5 and 5 phr depending
on the required stabilizing effect and coagulation point.
Application: Emulvin® WA is used for natural as well as synthetic latex based products like gloves,
condoms, threads, balloons, foams, etc.
Storage stability
In original closed containers under cool (approximately 25 °C) conditions 730 days from date of production.
