Description

Sodiumoctadecene-1-Sulphonate is an anionic surfactant derived from octadecene, valued for its excellent wetting, emulsifying, and dispersing properties. This compound is particularly significant for its ability to function effectively in challenging formulations, including those with high electrolyte content. It is a critical raw material for manufacturers in the detergent, textile, agrochemical, and personal care industries seeking high-performance surface-active agents.

Application

• Detergent & Cleaning Formulations: Acts as a primary surfactant and wetting agent in industrial and institutional cleaners, offering stability in hard water.
• Textile Processing: Used as a scouring, leveling, and wetting agent in dyeing and finishing processes to ensure uniform color application.
• Agrochemicals: Serves as an effective emulsifier and dispersant in pesticide and herbicide formulations, enhancing spray coverage and efficacy.
• Personal Care Products: Employed in shampoos, body washes, and other cleansing products for its foaming and cleansing capabilities.
• Industrial Emulsions: Functions as an emulsifier in the production of polymer emulsions, lubricants, and metalworking fluids.
• Oilfield Chemicals: Utilized in drilling muds and enhanced oil recovery processes as a surfactant to reduce interfacial tension.

Quality Control

Our Sodiumoctadecene-1-Sulphonate is manufactured under a stringent quality management system. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure it meets precise specifications for purity, activity, and performance. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting key parameters such as assay, moisture content, and unsulfonated matter are available upon request to support your quality assurance protocols.

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 product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); the container must be kept tightly sealed to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can affect product quality and flow properties.
