Description

C10-16-(Alkyl) Alcohol Ethoxylate Sulfuric Acid is an anionic surfactant derived from the sulfation of ethoxylated fatty alcohols. This compound is valued for its excellent wetting, emulsifying, and foaming properties, making it a versatile intermediate and active component in demanding formulations. It is primarily needed by manufacturers in the detergent, personal care, and industrial cleaning sectors seeking high-performance, biodegradable surfactant solutions.

Application

• Detergent & Cleaner Formulations: A key raw material in liquid laundry detergents, dishwashing liquids, and all-purpose cleaners for its superior grease-cutting and foaming power.
• Personal Care Products: Used in shampoos, body washes, and bubble baths as a primary surfactant for effective cleansing and rich lather.
• Industrial & Institutional (I&I) Cleaning: Employed in formulations for hard surface cleaners, degreasers, and vehicle wash systems where robust performance is required.
• Textile Processing: Functions as a wetting agent, emulsifier, and scouring aid in textile pretreatment and dyeing processes.
• Emulsion Polymerization: Serves as an anionic emulsifier in the production of polymers like acrylics, styrene-butadiene, and PVC.
• Agricultural Adjuvants: Used in pesticide and herbicide formulations to enhance spreading, wetting, and penetration on plant surfaces.

Quality Control

Our C10-16-(Alkyl) Alcohol Ethoxylate Sulfuric Acid is produced under a stringent quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure consistency in key parameters such as active matter content, unsulfated matter, and color. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting these specifications are available upon request to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). This material is a strong acid and should be stored away from incompatible materials such as strong bases and oxidizing agents. Keep container tightly sealed when not in use to prevent moisture absorption.
