Product Uses
Textile Dyeing: Acts as a levelling and retarding agent in textile dyeing, ensuring uniform dye distribution and improving color fastness.
Fiberglass Industry: Serves as an emulsifier in the fiberglass industry, contributing to the production of high - quality fiberglass materials.
Daily Chemicals: Used as an emulsifier in cosmetics and ointment production, helping to create stable and smooth formulations.
Cleaning Products: Can be used to formulate household and industrial cleaners, effectively removing dirt due to its good detergency.
Add the required amount (typically 0.5%-5% of total formulation, adjust by use case) to your base liquid (water or oil) at 40-60°C for better solubility.
Stir gently at 300-500 RPM for 5-10 minutes until fully dissolved and homogeneous.
Proceed to mix with other ingredients; avoid extreme pH (<3 or >10) or high temperatures (>80°C) to maintain stability.
For bulk use, pre-dilute with deionized water (1:10 ratio) first for easier blending.
