Product Uses
Textile Dyeing: Acts as a levelling and retarding agent in textile dyeing, enhancing color fastness and making the dyeing effect more brilliant.
Metal Processing: Serves as a cleaning agent in metal processing, effectively removing dirt from the metal surface for subsequent processing.
Chemical Fiber Industry: Used as a component in chemical fiber spinning oil, contributing to the smooth spinning process and improving fiber quality.
Daily Chemicals: Can be used to formulate household cleaners, leveraging its good detergency to remove dirt effectively.
Blend it with oil-phase ingredients first (recommended dosage: 1-5% of total formulation), stir at 60-80℃ until fully dissolved.
Gradually add the oil-emulsifier mixture to water-phase ingredients (same temperature) while stirring continuously.
Keep stirring at low speed until the mixture cools to room temperature—your emulsion product is ready. Adjust dosage based on specific formulas.
FAQ
A1: Store it in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place, away from direct sunlight and high temperatures (above 40℃). Sealed properly, it has a shelf life of 24 months.
A2: Only food-grade Emulsifier O-15 is suitable for food processing (e.g., bakery, dairy). Confirm the grade with us first, and follow local food safety regulations for dosage.
A3: No—excessive dosage (over 5%) may cause product stickiness or reduce stability. Stick to 1-5% of the total formulation; adjust only if your specific formula requires it.
Q4: Is Emulsifier O-15 compatible with other emulsifiers?
A4: Yes, it works well with non-ionic or anionic emulsifiers (e.g., Span, Tween). Test a small sample first to ensure no adverse reactions like phase separation.
