Description

Acetic Acid, Chloro-, Sodium Salt, Reaction Products With 4,5-Dihydro-2-Undecyl-1H-Imidazole-1-Ethanol And Sodium Hydroxide CAS NO 68608-66-2 is a specialized organic salt complex derived from the reaction of chloroacetic acid sodium salt with a substituted imidazole derivative. This compound is valued for its unique surfactant and corrosion-inhibiting properties, making it a critical performance additive in industrial formulations. It is primarily sought after by manufacturers in the oilfield chemicals, metalworking fluids, and industrial cleaning sectors.

Application

• Oilfield Chemicals: Acts as a high-performance corrosion inhibitor and surfactant in drilling fluids, completion fluids, and production chemicals.
• Metalworking Fluids: Serves as a key additive in coolants and lubricants to provide corrosion protection and enhance emulsion stability.
• Industrial & Institutional (I&I) Cleaners: Used in heavy-duty alkaline and acidic cleaning formulations for its surfactant and anti-corrosion properties.
• Coatings & Paints: Functions as a dispersing agent and corrosion inhibitor in water-based protective coating systems.
• Textile Processing: Employed as a softening agent and anti-static component in fabric treatment baths.
• Personal Care: May be utilized as a mild surfactant and conditioning agent in select rinse-off products.
