Description

Polypropyleneglycol, Ethoxylated, Distearate is a non-ionic surfactant and emulsifier derived from polypropylene glycol, ethylene oxide, and stearic acid. This versatile chemical is valued for its excellent emulsifying, dispersing, and lubricating properties in complex formulations. It is a critical component for manufacturers in the personal care, industrial lubricants, textile processing, and agrochemical industries seeking stable, high-performance products.

Application

• Personal Care & Cosmetics: Acts as a primary emulsifier and opacifying agent in creams, lotions, and hair conditioners, providing a rich, stable texture.
• Industrial Lubricants & Metalworking Fluids: Serves as a lubricity additive and emulsifier in synthetic and semi-synthetic coolants and drawing compounds.
• Textile Processing: Used as a softening agent, lubricant, and anti-static agent in fiber spinning and fabric finishing.
• Agrochemical Formulations: Functions as an emulsifier and dispersant in pesticide and herbicide concentrates for improved sprayability and efficacy.
• Paints & Coatings: Employed as a pigment wetting and dispersing agent to enhance color development and stability.
• Plastics & Polymers: Acts as an internal lubricant and anti-static agent during polymer processing and molding.
