Description

Linolenic Acid Ethoxylated Diesters is a non-ionic surfactant derived from linolenic acid, a polyunsaturated ω-3 fatty acid, through ethoxylation and subsequent esterification. This chemical modification imparts valuable properties such as enhanced water solubility, emulsification power, and surface activity, making it a versatile functional ingredient. It is primarily utilized in the formulation of industrial lubricants, textile processing aids, agrochemicals, and personal care products where its biodegradable and non-ionic nature is advantageous.

Application

• As a primary emulsifier or co-emulsifier in agricultural formulations such as pesticide and herbicide concentrates.
• Functioning as a lubricant and anti-static agent in synthetic fiber production and textile spinning processes.
• Serving as a key surfactant component in industrial and institutional cleaning products, including hard surface cleaners and degreasers.
• Utilized in the formulation of metalworking fluids for its emulsifying and lubricating properties.
• Acting as a dispersing agent and wetting aid in pigment pastes, coatings, and ink systems.
• Potential use as a mild surfactant or emollient ester in rinse-off personal care products like shampoos and body washes.
• Employed in the production of polymer additives and as a processing aid in plastics manufacturing.

Quality Control

Our Linolenic Acid Ethoxylated Diesters are manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing to ensure consistency, purity, and performance. Key parameters such as degree of ethoxylation, ester content, acid value, and hydroxyl value are verified. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) documenting these results is provided with every shipment to guarantee compliance with your specifications and industry standards.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). This product is easily oxidized (store under inert atmosphere) and is incompatible with strong acids and organic solvents. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame. For long-term storage, consider purging the headspace with an inert gas such as nitrogen.
