Surfactants Can Help the Efficiency of your Treatments
18 Apr 2013
When you are treating your pond for aquatic weeds, algae, and other problems, you may notice that the surface tension of the water is preventing the most optimal dispersion of your treatments. This means that you may need to use more chemical to achieve the same results. However, by utilizing a good surfactant you can easily bypass this potential problem.
A surfactant will work to break the hydrogen bond that you’ll find on the surface of most bodies of water. This allows for simpler mixing of the water and the algaecides/pond-weed-control. An added benefit is that our surfactant, Plex Mate, will also help by breaking down the waxy coating present on many aquatic weeds, thus allowing for a deeper penetration of the maintenance chemicals.
