Lakeland chemicals supplies range of emulsifiers which are based on sorbitan esters & polyisobutylene succinic anhy-
dride (PIBSA). All emulsifiers exhibit excellent solubility in mineral oils and hydrocarbon solvents and are compatible
with rheology modifiers (e.g. waxes and thickenrs) and performance enhancers.
Versatile emulsifiers recommended for bulk and cartridge systems
Compatible with AN only or mixed oxidiser systems and common sensitising tecniques
Easy chemical gassing
Offer excellent water resistance
Its lower cost and wide availability make it the emulsifier of choice for mild conditions and
short sleep time (time of the explosive emulsion residence in a borehole before blasting)
Have higher activity requring lower dosage rates
Have superior emuision stability
Can achieve longer sleep times
Is more water resistant
Stable for yeares in storage - this helps customers with inventory control and shipping.
Maike reliable emulsions - they "shoot" when they are expected to, thus protecting workers and improving
Productivity on construction, mining and quarrying sites.
