Description

Fatty Acids, C14-18 And C16-18-Unsatd., Esters With Propylene Glycol, Sulfated, Sodium Salts is a specialized anionic surfactant derived from natural fatty acids. This compound matters for its excellent wetting, emulsifying, and detergent properties, making it a versatile workhorse in demanding formulations. It is primarily needed by manufacturers in the personal care, textile processing, and industrial cleaning sectors seeking high-performance, biodegradable surfactant solutions.

Application

• Personal Care & Cosmetics: Acts as a primary surfactant and foaming agent in shampoos, body washes, and facial cleansers for its mildness and rich lather.
• Textile Auxiliaries: Used as a wetting agent, scouring agent, and emulsifier in textile pretreatment and dyeing processes.
• Industrial & Institutional (I&I) Cleaners: Serves as a key detergent component in heavy-duty floor cleaners, degreasers, and metal cleaning formulations.
• Emulsion Polymerization: Functions as an emulsifier and stabilizer in the production of synthetic latexes for paints, coatings, and adhesives.
• Agricultural Adjuvants: Employed as a wetting and spreading agent to enhance the efficacy of pesticides and herbicides.
• Leather Processing: Used in fatliquoring and dyeing processes to improve softness and dye penetration.
