NP 9, NP 9.5, 9.5 Mole, Vanwet 9N9, etc. are all non-ionic surfactants and are basically an all purpose detergent and wetting agent. These surfactants are stable in the presence of acids, bases, and salts. They are also miscible with chlorinated and aromatic solvents and can be coupled with Butyl solvents and other aliphatic and aromatic solvents. Surfactants usually will not "fall out" of a solution. So in layman's terms....... Any of these surfactants will work well in our industry. They will mix well with any application. If you think think your surfactant may have fallen out, you simply may have not added enough to your solution. Hope this helps.
