Description

Benzenesulfonic Acid, Dodecyl-, Reaction Products With Diethanolamine is a versatile anionic surfactant and emulsifier derived from the reaction of dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid with diethanolamine. This compound is valued for its excellent emulsifying, dispersing, and wetting properties, making it a critical component in formulations requiring stable oil-in-water emulsions. It is primarily used by manufacturers in the industrial cleaning, agrochemical, textile processing, and personal care industries.

Application

• Industrial & Institutional Cleaners: Acts as a primary emulsifier and degreaser in heavy-duty liquid detergents, metal cleaners, and degreasing formulations.
• Agrochemical Formulations: Used as an emulsifier and dispersant in pesticide and herbicide concentrates to ensure stable emulsion formation upon dilution.
• Textile Processing: Serves as a wetting agent, scouring aid, and emulsifier in fabric preparation and dyeing processes.
• Personal Care & Cosmetics: Functions as an emulsifier in select cream, lotion, and hair care products, providing emulsion stability.
• Metalworking Fluids: Employed as an emulsifier in soluble oil and semi-synthetic metalworking fluids for lubrication and cooling.
• Paint & Coatings: Acts as a dispersing agent for pigments and fillers in water-based coating systems.
• Leather Processing: Used in fatliquoring and dyeing processes as an emulsifying and wetting agent.
