Description

Sodium Amyl Sulfooleate CAS NO 68478-86-4 is a specialized anionic surfactant derived from oleic acid and amyl alcohol. This compound is valued for its excellent emulsifying, wetting, and dispersing properties in demanding formulations. It is primarily utilized by manufacturers in the industrial cleaning, textile processing, and agrochemical sectors where robust surface activity is required.

Application

• Industrial & Institutional (I&I) Cleaners: Acts as a powerful emulsifier and wetting agent in heavy-duty degreasers, metal cleaning formulations, and floor cleaners.
• Textile Processing: Used in scouring, dyeing, and finishing baths to improve wetting, level dyeing, and fiber lubrication.
• Agrochemical Formulations: Serves as an effective emulsifier and dispersant in pesticide and herbicide concentrates (EC, SC, EW formulations).
• Metalworking Fluids: Functions as an emulsifier and corrosion inhibitor in soluble oils and semi-synthetic coolants.
• Leather Processing: Employed in fatliquoring and dyeing processes to enhance penetration and uniformity.
• Paint & Coating Additives: Aids in pigment dispersion and stabilization in various coating systems.
• Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR): Investigated for its potential as a surfactant in chemical flooding applications.
