Description

Butanedioic Acid, Mono-2-Alkenyl(C=16-18) Derivs., Dipotassium Salts is a specialized anionic surfactant derived from succinic acid and long-chain olefins. This compound is valued for its excellent emulsifying, dispersing, and surface-active properties in demanding formulations. It is primarily utilized by manufacturers in the personal care, industrial cleaning, and agrochemical sectors seeking high-performance, salt-tolerant ingredients.

Application

• Personal Care Formulations: Acts as a primary or secondary surfactant and emulsifier in shampoos, body washes, and facial cleansers, providing rich lather and mildness.
• Industrial & Institutional (I&I) Cleaners: Used in heavy-duty degreasers, alkaline cleaners, and floor care products for its stability in high-electrolyte environments.
• Agrochemical Adjuvants: Enhances the efficacy of pesticides and herbicides by improving wetting, spreading, and penetration on plant surfaces.
• Textile Processing: Serves as a wetting agent, dispersant, and emulsifier in dyeing and finishing baths.
• Emulsion Polymerization: Functions as a surfactant in the production of synthetic latexes for paints, coatings, and adhesives.
• Metal Working Fluids: Provides emulsification and lubrication in coolants and drawing compounds.
