Description

p-Dodecylbenzenesulphonic Acid, Compound With 2,2',2''-Nitrilotriethanol (1:1) is a high-purity, neutralized salt form of dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid (DBSA) that offers enhanced handling stability and solubility. This compound is a critical surfactant intermediate and emulsifying agent, valued for its consistent performance in demanding formulations. It is essential for manufacturers in the detergent, personal care, textile, and industrial cleaning sectors seeking reliable raw materials for production.

Application

• Detergent & Cleaning Formulations: A key raw material for manufacturing liquid and powder detergents, dishwashing liquids, and industrial cleaners, providing excellent foaming and grease-cutting properties.
• Personal Care Products: Used as a primary surfactant or co-emulsifier in shampoos, body washes, and liquid soaps due to its mildness and compatibility with other ingredients.
• Textile Processing: Serves as a wetting agent, scouring agent, and emulsifier in textile auxiliaries for dyeing and finishing processes.
• Emulsion Polymerization: Acts as an effective emulsifier and stabilizer in the production of synthetic rubbers, latex paints, and polymer dispersions (e.g., SBR, acrylics).
• Agricultural Chemicals: Utilized as a dispersing and emulsifying agent in the formulation of pesticides and herbicides.
• Metal Working Fluids: Incorporated as a corrosion inhibitor and emulsifier in soluble oils and coolants.
• Paint & Coatings: Functions as a grinding aid and pigment dispersant to improve color development and stability in water-based coatings.
• Industrial Lubricants: Used as an additive to enhance the emulsifying and anti-rust properties of lubricating oils and greases.
