Description

Disodium 2-Butoxyethyl Phosphate is an organophosphate salt widely recognized for its surfactant and chelating properties. This compound is valued for its ability to enhance stability and performance in complex formulations, particularly where metal ion control is critical. It serves as a key functional additive in demanding industrial and technical applications, including metal treatment processes and specialized cleaning systems.

Application

• Metal Treatment & Surface Finishing: Acts as a chelating agent and stabilizer in metal cleaning, phosphating, and electroplating baths to control metal ions and improve coating quality.
• Industrial & Institutional (I&I) Cleaning: Used in heavy-duty alkaline and acidic cleaner formulations for its surfactant and sequestering properties.
• Textile Processing: Functions as a stabilizer and dispersing agent in dye baths and textile pretreatment chemicals.
• Paints & Coatings: Employed as a pigment dispersant and grinding aid to improve color development and stability in aqueous systems.
• Oilfield Chemicals: Utilized in scale and corrosion inhibitor formulations for water treatment in production and refining.
• Personal Care: Can serve as a mild surfactant or chelating agent in select rinse-off cosmetic products.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). 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 quality.
