Description

(2-Hydroxyethyl)Ammonium Pentadecyl Sulphate is an ammonium salt surfactant derived from pentadecyl alcohol. This compound is valued for its effective surface-active properties and compatibility in various formulation chemistries. It serves as a key ingredient for industrial manufacturers requiring specialized emulsifiers and dispersants. Its structure makes it suitable for applications demanding a balance of hydrophobicity and mild cationic character.

Application

• Primary emulsifier and dispersing agent in agrochemical formulations (e.g., pesticides, herbicides).
• Key component in industrial and institutional cleaning products for hard surface cleaning.
• Raw material for the synthesis of specialized surfactants and quaternary ammonium compounds.
• Additive in textile processing auxiliaries for fiber lubrication and dye leveling.
• Intermediate in the production of personal care products requiring mild surfactants.
• Foaming and wetting agent in technical applications such as concrete admixtures or ore flotation.
• Stabilizer and viscosity modifier in latex and polymer emulsion systems.

Quality Control

Our (2-Hydroxyethyl)Ammonium Pentadecyl Sulphate is produced under a rigorous quality management system. Each batch is tested to ensure it meets precise chemical and physical specifications. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) documenting purity, assay, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and consistency for your production processes.

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); containers must be kept tightly sealed to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can affect product quality and performance.
