Description

Potassium Didodecyl Phosphate is an organophosphate salt widely utilized as a high-performance surfactant and emulsifier. Its value lies in its ability to effectively reduce surface tension and stabilize formulations, particularly in challenging chemical environments. This product is essential for manufacturers in the lubricant, agrochemical, and specialty polymer industries seeking reliable performance additives.

Application

• Lubricant & Metalworking Fluid Additive: Acts as an effective emulsifier and anti-wear agent in synthetic and semi-synthetic lubricants.
• Agrochemical Formulations: Used as a dispersant and wetting agent in pesticides and herbicides to improve sprayability and leaf adhesion.
• Polymerization Aid: Serves as an emulsifier and stabilizer in emulsion polymerization processes for synthetic rubbers and plastics.
• Textile & Leather Processing: Functions as a softening agent, lubricant, and antistatic agent in fiber treatment and leather finishing.
• Industrial & Institutional Cleaners: Employed as a surfactant in heavy-duty degreasers and cleaning formulations for its stability in alkaline conditions.
• Paper & Pulp Industry: Used in de-inking processes and as a dispersant for pigments and fillers.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); containers must be kept tightly sealed to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture. Keep away from strong alkalis and incompatible materials.
