How much do you know about penetranting agent

The full name of penetranting agent is fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether, which is a non-ionic surfactant. The penetranting agent, as its name implies, is a substance that has a fixed hydrophilic and lipophilic group, which can be aligned on the surface of the solution and can significantly reduce the surface tension.

The broad concept of penetranting agent refers to a class of chemicals that can help the substance that needs to be penetrated to penetrate into the substance that needs to be penetrated. The industry generally uses surfactants or organic or inorganic solvents.

Penetranting agent are generally divided into two types, non-ionic and anionic. Non-ionic ones include JFC, JFC-1, JFC-2, JFC-E, etc.; anionic ones include fast penetrating agent T, alkali resistant penetrating agent OEP-70, alkali resistant penetrating agent AEP, high temperature penetrating agent JFC-M and so on.
