Description

Triethanolamine Phosphate is an organophosphorus compound formed by the reaction of triethanolamine with phosphoric acid. This versatile chemical serves as an effective emulsifier, corrosion inhibitor, and pH buffer in complex formulations. It is essential for manufacturers in the cosmetics, metalworking fluids, textile processing, and industrial cleaning sectors seeking stable, multi-functional additives.

Application

• Cosmetic & Personal Care Formulations: Acts as a pH adjuster, emulsifier, and stabilizer in creams, lotions, and hair care products.
• Metalworking Fluids: Functions as a key corrosion inhibitor and lubricity agent in synthetic and semi-synthetic coolants.
• Textile Processing: Used as a softening agent, dyeing auxiliary, and antistatic agent for synthetic fibers.
• Industrial & Institutional Cleaners: Serves as a buffering agent and sequestrant in heavy-duty alkaline and acidic cleaning formulations.
• Adhesives & Sealants: Employed as a catalyst and stabilizer in various polymer-based adhesive systems.
• Laboratory & Research: Utilized as a biochemical buffer and reagent in specific analytical and research applications.
