Description

Polyethylene Glycol Hexyl Ether Sulfate, Ammonium Salt is a high-performance anionic surfactant derived from the ethoxylation and sulfation of hexanol. This compound matters for its excellent wetting, emulsifying, and foaming properties, particularly in formulations requiring high electrolyte tolerance and mildness. It is primarily needed by manufacturers in the personal care, agrochemical, and industrial cleaning sectors seeking effective and versatile surface-active agents.

Application

• Personal Care & Cosmetics: Key ingredient in mild shampoos, body washes, and facial cleansers for its gentle cleansing and rich lather.
• Agrochemical Formulations: Used as a wetting agent, dispersant, and penetrant in pesticide and herbicide concentrates.
• Industrial & Institutional (I&I) Cleaners: Effective component in hard surface cleaners, degreasers, and vehicle wash formulations.
• Textile Processing: Employed as a scouring agent, wetting agent, and dye leveling assistant.
• Emulsion Polymerization: Serves as an emulsifier and stabilizer in the production of acrylic, vinyl acetate, and styrene-butadiene lattices.
• Oilfield Chemicals: Utilized in drilling muds and well stimulation fluids for its surfactant properties.
