Description

Oxirane, Methyl-, Polymer With Oxirane, Monohexadecyl Ether, Phosphate is a specialized nonionic surfactant and emulsifier, chemically classified as an alkoxylated phosphate ester. This compound is engineered to provide excellent wetting, dispersing, and emulsifying properties in demanding formulations. It is a critical performance additive for industries requiring stable emulsions and surface tension reduction, particularly in agrochemicals, coatings, and industrial cleaning applications.

Application

• Agrochemical Formulations: Acts as a key emulsifier and wetting agent in pesticide and herbicide concentrates (ECs, SCs), enhancing spray coverage and stability.
• Industrial & Institutional (I&I) Cleaners: Used in heavy-duty degreasers, metal cleaners, and alkaline formulations for its superior detergency and emulsification of oils.
• Coatings & Inks: Serves as a pigment dispersant and grinding aid, improving color development and stability in water-based and solvent-based systems.
• Textile Processing: Functions as a lubricant, antistatic agent, and dye leveling assistant in fiber treatment and dyeing baths.
• Metalworking Fluids: Provides emulsification and lubrication in synthetic and semi-synthetic coolants and drawing compounds.
• Personal Care: Employed as a mild surfactant and emulsifier in select rinse-off products, offering good compatibility with skin.

Quality Control

Our production of Oxirane, Methyl-, Polymer With Oxirane, Monohexadecyl Ether, Phosphate adheres to stringent quality management protocols. Every batch is analyzed to ensure consistent performance characteristics such as acid value, hydroxyl value, and phosphate content. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting purity, physical properties, and key specifications are available upon request to support your quality assurance and regulatory compliance needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C/59-77°F). This material is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive). Keep the container tightly sealed when not in use to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can affect product performance.
