FoodCare® Antifog SF05
The product FoodCare® Antifog SF05 prevents fogging on the surface of the extruded sheet and thermoformed packaging. The condensed water droplets spread easily into a continuous and uniform visible layer. Antifogging performance hinges on two chemical capabilities: sheeting and hydrophilicity, the degree to which a molecule is compatible with water. Water ordinarily condenses on a surface as tiny droplets. These refract light in such a way that you can’t easily see through the surface. But if the surface is treated with an antifog, you get a vastly different picture. The antifog is hydrophilic, so they dissolve in the water droplets. And as they do, they lower the surface tension of the droplets. Droplets spread or sheet across the surface, forming one continuous film. This film refracts light the same way a dry surface would. The result: clear visibility.

Benefits

• antifogging performance on the surface
  
• silicone free treatment
  
• compatible with inks& coatings
  
• water-soluble
  
• effective at low concentrations
  
• improves the release of thermoformed packaging

Application

• easy to apply on the surface, for example APET sheet
  
• The concentration should be evaluated during the sheet & thermoform process.
