Description

C6-10 Pareth-4 Phosphate is a nonionic surfactant phosphate ester, a versatile chemical intermediate prized for its excellent emulsifying, wetting, and dispersing properties. Its unique structure provides a balance of hydrophilic and lipophilic character, making it a critical component in formulating high-performance industrial and specialty products. This surfactant is essential for manufacturers in the agrochemical, textile, metalworking, and personal care industries seeking stable and effective formulations.

Application

• Agrochemical Formulations: Acts as a key emulsifier and wetting agent in pesticide and herbicide concentrates, enhancing spray coverage and system stability.
• Textile Processing: Used as a lubricant, antistatic agent, and dye leveling assistant in fiber and fabric manufacturing.
• Metalworking Fluids: Serves as an emulsifier and corrosion inhibitor in synthetic and semi-synthetic cutting, grinding, and rolling oils.
• Industrial & Institutional (I&I) Cleaners: Functions as a primary surfactant in heavy-duty degreasers, alkaline cleaners, and hard surface cleaners due to its stability in strong acid/organic solvent environments.
• Personal Care & Cosmetics: Employed as a mild surfactant and emulsifying agent in select rinse-off products where phosphate esters are specified.
• Paints & Coatings: Acts as a pigment dispersant and grinding aid, improving color development and stability in aqueous systems.
• Paper & Pulp Industry: Used in de-inking processes and as a dispersant for coatings and fillers.

Quality Control

Our C6-10 Pareth-4 Phosphate is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure consistent composition, performance, and purity. Key parameters such as active content, free phosphoric acid, pH, and color are monitored. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) documenting these results is available for every shipment to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Keep away from strong oxidizing agents. Due to its chemical nature, it should be stored away from strong acids and organic solvents unless being used in formulation. Keep container tightly sealed when not in use to minimize moisture pickup.
