Description

Poly(Oxy-1,2-Ethanediyl), .Alpha.-(Carboxymethyl)-.Omega.-Hydroxy-, C8-18 And C18-Unsatd. Alkyl And (Octyl Or Nonyl)Phenyl Ethers, Sodium Salts is a high-performance, nonionic/anionic surfactant blend designed for demanding industrial applications. This versatile compound is valued for its excellent wetting, emulsifying, and dispersing properties, particularly in challenging formulations. It is a critical raw material for manufacturers in the agrochemical, textile, and industrial cleaning sectors seeking reliable performance and supply chain stability.

Application

• Agrochemical Formulations: Acts as a key wetting agent, dispersant, and emulsifier in pesticide and herbicide concentrates and wettable powders (WP).
• Textile Processing: Used in scouring, dyeing, and finishing baths to improve wetting, level dyeing, and fiber lubrication.
• Industrial & Institutional (I&I) Cleaners: Serves as a primary surfactant in heavy-duty alkaline cleaners, degreasers, and metal cleaning formulations.
• Paint & Coating Additives: Functions as a pigment dispersant and grinding aid to improve color development and stability in aqueous systems.
• Emulsion Polymerization: Employed as an emulsifier and stabilizer in the production of synthetic latexes, such as acrylics and styrene-butadiene rubber (SBR).
• Oilfield Chemicals: Utilized in drilling muds and production chemicals for its emulsification and demulsification properties.
