- Formulation Guidelines
- Burcoterge GRN can be used in both acidic and basic environments. However, effectiveness of the product rapidly diminishes above a pH of 11.5.
- The use of solvents such as glycols, butyl ethers, and d-limonene as part of the formulation is possible.
- To increase the amount of foam generated, surfactants such as Burcoterge C2P-39 (amphoteric) or Burco COPB-35 (betaine) can be added to the formulation.
- Formulation of DfE and Green Seal acceptable products should follow the guidelines published by the certifying bodies to ensure all standards are met for all materials in a given formulation.
