Description

Sodium 3-Chloro-2-Hydroxypropyl Sulphate is a versatile organosulfur compound primarily used as a key intermediate in the synthesis of specialty chemicals. This compound is valued for its reactive chlorohydrin and sulfate ester functional groups, which enable its use in etherification and cross-linking reactions. It is essential for manufacturers in the textile, paper, and personal care industries seeking to produce modified starches, cellulose ethers, and other functional polymers.

Application

• Etherifying Agent for Starch and Cellulose: A critical intermediate for the production of cationic starch and hydroxypropyl starch, which are used as wet-end additives in papermaking and as thickeners in various industries.
• Chemical Intermediate for Personal Care: Used in the synthesis of conditioning agents and viscosity modifiers for shampoos, lotions, and other cosmetic formulations.
• Textile Auxiliary Production: Serves as a building block for creating fabric softeners, dye-fixing agents, and other textile finishing chemicals.
• Cross-linking Agent for Polymers: Employed in the modification of water-soluble polymers to enhance their performance in applications like water treatment and oilfield chemicals.
• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Utilized in the synthesis of certain active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and excipients requiring specific functionalization.
• Adhesive and Sealant Formulations: Acts as a reactive modifier to improve the adhesion and performance properties of industrial adhesives.

Quality Control

Our Sodium 3-Chloro-2-Hydroxypropyl Sulphate is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure consistent purity, reactivity, and performance. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing key parameters such as assay, chloride content, and moisture are provided to guarantee compliance with your technical specifications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area. Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after each use to prevent moisture absorption, which can affect product quality and stability. Recommended storage temperature is 15-25°C.
