Description

Poly(Oxy-1,2-Ethanediyl), .Alpha.-3-Carboxy-1-Oxo(Tetrapropenyl)Propyl-.Omega.-Hydroxy-, C12-15-Alkyl Ethers is a high-performance, nonionic surfactant and emulsifier derived from a complex polyether carboxylic acid structure. This compound is engineered to deliver superior wetting, dispersing, and stabilizing properties in demanding formulations. It is a critical raw material for manufacturers in the personal care, industrial cleaning, and coatings industries seeking advanced performance and formulation stability.

Application

• Personal Care & Cosmetics: Acts as a primary emulsifier and stabilizer in creams, lotions, and sunscreens, providing excellent skin feel and emulsion stability.
• Industrial & Institutional (I&I) Cleaners: Used in heavy-duty degreasers, alkaline cleaners, and floor care products for its robust wetting and soil suspension capabilities.
• Coatings & Paints: Serves as a pigment dispersant and grinding aid in water-based architectural and industrial coatings, improving color development and shelf life.
• Textile Processing: Employed as a scouring agent, dye leveler, and finishing aid to enhance process efficiency and fabric quality.
• Agricultural Formulations: Functions as an adjuvant in pesticide and herbicide concentrates to improve spray coverage, droplet retention, and active ingredient efficacy.
• Metalworking Fluids: Provides emulsification and lubrication in synthetic and semi-synthetic metalworking coolants and drawing compounds.
