Description

Sodium 1-(2-Methylpropyl) 9-(Sulphooxy)Octadecanoate is a specialized anionic surfactant and sulfated ester derivative. This compound is valued for its unique combination of hydrophobic and hydrophilic properties, making it an effective emulsifier and wetting agent in demanding formulations. It is primarily utilized by manufacturers in the personal care, industrial cleaning, and textile processing sectors seeking high-performance surface-active ingredients.

Application

• Personal Care Formulations: Acts as a primary or co-surfactant in shampoos, body washes, and liquid soaps for enhanced lather and mild cleansing.
• Industrial & Institutional (I&I) Cleaners: Used in heavy-duty degreasers, metal cleaners, and floor care products for superior wetting and soil emulsification.
• Textile Auxiliaries: Serves as a wetting agent, scouring aid, and emulsifier in fiber processing and dyeing baths.
• Emulsion Polymerization: Functions as a surfactant in the production of synthetic latexes for paints, coatings, and adhesives.
• Agricultural Adjuvants: Incorporated into pesticide and herbicide formulations to improve spray coverage and active ingredient penetration.
• Leather Processing: Employed in fatliquoring and dyeing processes to ensure even distribution of oils and dyes.

Quality Control

Our Sodium 1-(2-Methylpropyl) 9-(Sulphooxy)Octadecanoate is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch is analyzed to ensure consistent purity, performance, and compliance with relevant industry specifications. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing assay, impurity profile, and physical parameters is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and product integrity.

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); the container must be kept tightly sealed after initial opening to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which may affect product quality.
