Description

Disodium Hexadec-2-Enylsuccinate is a high-purity, anionic surfactant derived from succinic acid. This compound is valued for its excellent emulsifying, dispersing, and wetting properties, making it a critical performance additive in advanced formulations. It is primarily sought by manufacturers in the personal care, cosmetics, and specialty chemical industries for creating stable, high-quality products.

Application

• Primary Surfactant in Personal Care: Used in shampoos, body washes, and facial cleansers for its mild cleansing and rich foaming characteristics.
• Emulsifying Agent in Cosmetics: Essential for stabilizing oil-in-water (O/W) emulsions in lotions, creams, and sunscreens.
• Dispersant for Pigments & Fillers: Enhances the uniformity and stability of colorants and inorganic particles in coatings and make-up products.
• Industrial Cleaning Formulations: Acts as a key wetting and cleaning agent in specialty detergents and industrial cleaners.
• Textile Processing Aid: Employed as a scouring and wetting agent to improve dye penetration and fabric processing.
• Agricultural Adjuvant: Used in pesticide and herbicide formulations to improve spray coverage and active ingredient absorption.

Quality Control

Our Disodium Hexadec-2-Enylsuccinate is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Every batch is analyzed to ensure it meets precise chemical and physical specifications, with a focus on purity, active content, and performance consistency. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) documenting identity, assay, and impurity profiles is provided with each shipment to guarantee compliance with your formulation requirements.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after initial use to prevent moisture absorption, which can affect product performance.
