Description

Triton Qs 30 is a high-performance, nonionic surfactant belonging to the alkyl polyglucoside (APG) family, identified by CAS No. 59817-77-5. It is valued for its excellent wetting, emulsifying, and foaming properties, particularly in challenging chemical environments. This versatile surfactant is essential for formulators and manufacturers in industries requiring robust performance in strong acid and organic solvent systems.

Application

• Industrial & Institutional (I&I) Cleaners: Key component in acidic and solvent-based heavy-duty cleaners, degreasers, and metal pretreatment formulations.
• Agrochemicals: Used as an adjuvant, wetting, and spreading agent in pesticide and herbicide formulations, especially for concentrates requiring solvent compatibility.
• Paints & Coatings: Acts as a dispersant and emulsifier in water-based and solvent-based coating systems to improve pigment wetting and stability.
• Textile Processing: Employed in scouring, dyeing, and finishing baths where stability under acidic conditions is critical.
• Oilfield Chemicals: Utilized in acidizing and stimulation fluids for its surfactant properties and stability in harsh downhole environments.
• Household & Personal Care: Found in hard surface cleaners, dishwashing liquids, and other products requiring high foam and compatibility with acids or solvents.
