Description

4-C10-13-Secalkylderivativesbenzenesulfonicacid,Sodiumsalt is a sodium salt of a branched-chain alkylbenzene sulfonic acid, functioning as a versatile anionic surfactant and intermediate. This compound is valued for its excellent wetting, emulsifying, and detergent properties, making it a critical component in industrial formulations. It is primarily sought by manufacturers in the detergent, agrochemical, textile, and oilfield chemical industries for its robust performance in challenging conditions.

Application

• Detergent & Cleaning Formulations: A key surfactant in industrial and institutional (I&I) cleaners, degreasers, and hard surface cleaners due to its effective emulsification of oils and greases.
• Agrochemical Adjuvants: Used as a wetting agent, dispersant, and emulsifier in pesticide and herbicide formulations to enhance spray coverage and active ingredient efficacy.
• Textile Processing: Employed as a scouring agent, wetting agent, and dye leveling assistant in textile manufacturing and finishing processes.
• Oilfield Chemicals: Serves as a component in drilling muds, emulsifiers, and demulsifiers for enhanced oil recovery and production operations.
• Industrial Emulsions: Acts as an emulsifier and stabilizer in the production of polymer emulsions, lubricants, and metalworking fluids.
• Personal Care: Can be utilized as a base surfactant in select industrial-grade personal care products requiring strong cleansing power.
