Description

Sodium Hexadecadienyl Sulphate is an anionic surfactant derived from a C16 unsaturated fatty alcohol. This compound is valued for its excellent wetting, emulsifying, and foaming properties in aqueous systems. It is primarily utilized in the formulation of industrial and institutional cleaning products, as well as in specialized chemical synthesis. CAS No. 64509-08-6.

Application

• Industrial & Institutional (I&I) Cleaners: A key surfactant in heavy-duty floor cleaners, degreasers, and alkaline cleaning formulations.
• Textile Processing: Used as a wetting agent and emulsifier in scouring, dyeing, and finishing baths.
• Emulsion Polymerization: Serves as an emulsifier and stabilizer in the production of synthetic latexes and polymers.
• Agricultural Adjuvants: Functions as a wetting and spreading agent in pesticide and herbicide formulations.
• Metal Working Fluids: Employed as an emulsifier in soluble oils and synthetic coolants.
• Personal Care (Rinse-off products): Can be used as a secondary surfactant in shampoos and body washes for foam boosting.
