Description

Deceth-7 Carboxylic Acid is a high-purity, non-ionic surfactant intermediate derived from ethoxylated fatty alcohols. This compound is valued for its excellent emulsifying, wetting, and dispersing properties, making it a versatile building block for advanced formulations. It is essential for manufacturers in the personal care, industrial cleaning, and agrochemical sectors seeking to enhance product performance and stability.

Application

• Personal Care & Cosmetics: A key intermediate in the synthesis of mild surfactants and emulsifiers for shampoos, body washes, and skin creams.
• Industrial & Institutional Cleaners: Used in the production of high-performance detergents, degreasers, and emulsifying agents for hard surface cleaning.
• Agrochemical Formulations: Acts as an effective wetting and dispersing agent in pesticides, herbicides, and foliar fertilizers.
• Textile Processing: Employed as a scouring, wetting, and leveling agent in dyeing and finishing operations.
• Paints & Coatings: Serves as a pigment dispersant and grinding aid to improve color development and stability.
• Oilfield Chemicals: Utilized in drilling muds and production chemicals as an emulsifier and corrosion inhibitor intermediate.
