About BASF Performance Chemicals

One of the Internet's richest source of useful information for your formulation challenges.

Featuring the interactive PLURONIC® and PLURONIC® R Surfactant Grids. Click on either of these two buttons throughout the site to bring you directly to their interactive grids!

Formulating chemists--you've come to the right page for assistance in developing improved products in applications such as cleaning and laundry--metal treatment--pesticide formulations--emulsion polymerization--and a host of other applications limited only by your technical creativity and new product ideas.

Our goal takes its cue from yours: to develop effective formulations in less time, at less cost, and with a minimum of trial and error.

So what's the best way to get started?

If you're working on a specific end use, or if you're unsure about the potential role our surfactants can play in your formulation, you'll find the Applications link useful. From brief discussions of end-use applications you can link to the BASF PLURONIC® or PLURONIC® R Surfactant Grids for specific product recommendations.

If you already know the general surfactant functionality you need, follow the Formulation Assistance link for detailed discussions about foaming, defoaming, detergency, emulsification, gel formation and wetting. From these pages you can access the exclusive interactive BASF PLURONIC® or PLURONIC® R Surfactant Grids to find products best suited for these particular functions.

Those users already familiar with our chemistry may want to jump directly to our Product pages to review specific physical property data for BASF Performance Chemicals products. On these pages you'll also find direct links to the unique BASF PLURONIC® and PLURONIC® R Surfactant Grids, powerful interactive tools to help you choose the right surfactant for almost any application. This is the best place to go if you want to find information such as foaming characteristics or an HLB value for a specific product.
