Description

Poly(Oxy-1,2-Ethanediyl), .Alpha.-Sulfo-.Omega.-Hydroxy-, C10-12-Alkyl Ethers, Ammonium Salts is a high-performance anionic surfactant belonging to the alkyl ether sulfate (AES) family, specifically the ammonium salt variant. This compound is valued for its excellent foaming, wetting, and emulsifying properties, particularly in formulations requiring mildness and compatibility with other ingredients. It is a critical component for manufacturers in the personal care, home care, and industrial cleaning sectors seeking effective and versatile surface-active agents.

Application

• Personal Care Formulations: Primary surfactant in shampoos, body washes, facial cleansers, and bubble baths due to its rich lather and mildness on skin and hair.
• Household & Institutional Cleaners: Key ingredient in liquid dish soaps, all-purpose cleaners, and floor cleaners for its superior degreasing and foaming power.
• Industrial & Institutional (I&I) Cleaning: Used in formulations for vehicle wash systems, food processing plant cleaners, and janitorial products requiring high detergency.
• Textile & Leather Processing: Acts as a wetting agent, emulsifier, and scouring aid in fiber treatment and leather finishing baths.
• Agricultural Adjuvants: Functions as a spray tank adjuvant to enhance the spreading and sticking of pesticides and herbicides on plant surfaces.
• Emulsion Polymerization: Serves as an effective emulsifier and stabilizer in the production of latex polymers for paints, coatings, and adhesives.
