Common Issues and Solutions
Problem: Poor Wetting Performance
Possible Causes:
- Insufficient surfactant concentration
- Incompatible surfactant type
- Temperature too low
Solutions:
- Increase dosage gradually
- Try different surfactant type
- Adjust temperature to recommended range
Problem: Excessive Foaming
Possible Causes:
- High surfactant concentration
- Agitation too vigorous
- Incompatible additives
Solutions:
- Reduce surfactant dosage
- Use defoamer
- Check additive compatibility
Problem: Phase Separation
Possible Causes:
- Incompatible surfactant mixtures
- Temperature fluctuations
- pH outside recommended range
