Description

Ammonium (Nonylphenyl) Sulphate is an anionic surfactant belonging to the alkylphenol ethoxylate sulfate class. This compound is valued for its excellent wetting, dispersing, and emulsifying properties in aqueous systems. It serves as a critical component for formulators in the agrochemical, textile, and industrial cleaning sectors, where stable emulsion formation and surface activity are required.

Application

• Agrochemical Formulations: Acts as a key emulsifier and wetting agent in pesticide and herbicide concentrates, enhancing spray coverage and stability.
• Textile Processing: Used in scouring, dyeing, and finishing baths to improve fiber wetting and dye dispersion.
• Industrial & Institutional (I&I) Cleaners: Provides effective emulsification and cleaning power in heavy-duty degreasers and hard surface cleaners.
• Metal Working Fluids: Functions as an emulsifier and corrosion inhibitor in soluble oils and coolants.
• Paint & Coating Additives: Aids in pigment dispersion and stabilization in water-based coating systems.
• Oilfield Chemicals: Employed in drilling muds and emulsion breakers for its surfactant properties.

Quality Control

Our Ammonium (Nonylphenyl) Sulphate is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch is tested to ensure consistent performance, including parameters for active matter content, sulfate content, and pH. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting full specifications are available upon request to support your quality assurance protocols.

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 product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); containers must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can affect product performance.
