Do you need a Multi-Functional Additive?
Today’s complex formulations have an increased need for multi-functional additives, especially when it comes to water-based formulations. That’s where Synative products, by BASF, come into play. These products can help reduce foam, come from renewable raw materials, and offer many added benefits.
The Solution for Water-Based Metalworking Formulations
Synative AL 80/85V and Synative AL 90/95V are linear, mainly unsaturated, fatty alcohols (oleyl/cetyl) that function as coupling agents and additive solubilizers. They both have good solubility in a variety of esters and mineral oils, as well as good low temperature properties. If you need foam reducing properties for your water-based metalworking formulations, these two check that box.
An Excellent Choice
Synative AL 80/85V and Synative AL90/95V are derived from vegetable oil and fats making them renewable and giving them an excellent health and safety profile. Other benefits include:
- Excellent lubricating properties
- Good for aluminum machining and rolling
- Low toxicity and irritation
- Great for MQL applications
