REDICOTE® E-7000
Application Emulsifier for slow-set emulsions.

Advantages • Flexibility: Redicote E-7000 can be used to prepare both anionic and
cationic slow-set emulsions.
• Adhesion: Anionic emulsions prepared with Redicote E-7000 show
good adhesion to siliceous aggregates, similar to the best cationic
slow-setting emulsions.
• Easy handling: The liquidity and water solubility of Redicote E-7000
make it easy to use, and the product does not contain flammable
solvents
