Description

Sodium 4-Pelargonyloxybenzenesulfonate is a specialized anionic surfactant and organic salt with a unique molecular structure combining a benzenesulfonate group with a pelargonyl (nonanoyl) chain. This compound matters for its ability to modify surface tension and act as an intermediate in the synthesis of more complex surfactants and specialty chemicals. It is needed by manufacturers in the personal care, detergent, and industrial chemical sectors seeking specific emulsifying, wetting, or dispersing properties.

Application

• As a key intermediate in the synthesis of high-performance surfactants and emulsifiers.
• In the formulation of specialty cleaning products and industrial detergents requiring specific wetting agents.
• As a potential emulsifying or dispersing agent in personal care products like creams and lotions.
• In textile processing auxiliaries as a wetting or leveling agent.
• For research and development of novel anionic surfactant systems with tailored properties.
• In the production of industrial coatings and pigment dispersions.

Quality Control

Our Sodium 4-Pelargonyloxybenzenesulfonate is produced under a rigorous quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting key parameters are available upon request to support your quality assurance and regulatory needs.

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). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can affect product quality.
