Product Range<br />

Surface active agents, or short Surfactants, are usually organic<br />

com pounds that are amphiphilic, meaning <strong>the</strong>y contain both hydrophobic<br />

and hydrophilic groups and are <strong>the</strong>re<strong>for</strong>e soluble in both<br />

organic solvents and water. They reduce <strong>the</strong> surface tension of a<br />

liquid by adsorbing at <strong>the</strong> liquid-gas interface, allowing easier<br />

spreading, and lower <strong>the</strong> interfacial tension between two liquids,<br />

e.g. between oil and water, by adsorbing at <strong>the</strong> liquid-liquid interface.<br />

Surfactants are used as emulsifiers, wetting agents, dispersants<br />

and stabilizers <strong>for</strong> different chemical and industrial applications.<br />

The selection of surfactants described in this brochure is offered<br />

<strong>for</strong> <strong>the</strong> following application areas:<br />

■ Air entraining agents <strong>for</strong> <strong>the</strong> construction industry<br />

■ Antifoaming agents<br />

■ Auxiliaries <strong>for</strong> <strong>the</strong> sugar industry<br />

■ Disinfecting agents<br />

■ Dispersing agents <strong>for</strong> pigments<br />

■ Emulsifiers <strong>for</strong> bitumen emulsions<br />

■ Emulsifiers <strong>for</strong> emulsion polymerization<br />

■ Emulsifiers <strong>for</strong> micro- and macro emulsions of fats,<br />

hydrocarbons and silicon oils<br />

Depending on <strong>the</strong> <strong>for</strong>mal charge of <strong>the</strong>ir head, surfactants can also<br />

be classified into anionic, cationic, non-ionic, and amphoteric<br />

(dual charge) groups. The product overview on <strong>the</strong> following pages<br />

Oxo alcohol ethoxylates<br />

Emulsogen EPN range<br />

Products from <strong>the</strong> Emulsogen ® EPN range serve as efficient emulsifiers<br />

which reduce <strong>the</strong> grit level during polymerization and improve dis -<br />

persion properties such as freeze-thaw stability, electrolyte resistance<br />

and sheer stability. They are suitable <strong>for</strong> emulsion polymerization of<br />

olefinic monomers or vinyl acetate toge<strong>the</strong>r with o<strong>the</strong>r vinyl esters,<br />

Emulsogen LCN range<br />

Emulsogen ® LCN is a preferred surfactant in various application fields,<br />

such as emulsion polymerization, coatings, adhesives, construction<br />

and detergents. Specifically, as emulsifier <strong>for</strong> emulsion polymerization,<br />

Emulsogen ® LCN improves <strong>the</strong> shear, temperature and electrolyte stability<br />

of polymer dispersions. At <strong>the</strong> same time, it can be used in inverse<br />

emulsion polymerization of water soluble monomers in hydrocarbons<br />

and in emulsions of oils, fats, silicon oils, polyolefin waxes, alkyd resins,<br />

acrylates, vinyl chloride and ethylene, in acrylic and styrene/acrylic<br />

dispersions as well as in butadiene/styrene latex. Emulsogen ® EPN<br />

also finds widespread use in pigment preparations, paints and coatings<br />

as a dispersing and wetting agent.<br />

Nonyphenol ethoxylates<br />

The Arkopal ® N grades are used as an emulsifier in emulsion polymerization,<br />

as wax emulsifier, in pigment pastes and as stabilizer in paints<br />

and coatings. They are resistant to metal salts, offer good dispersing<br />

properties and, depending on <strong>the</strong> degree of ethoxylation, excellent<br />

Tristyrylphenol ethoxylates<br />

Emulsogen ® TS grades are an excellent dispersing agent <strong>for</strong> organic<br />

pigments and carbon black to produce stable, free flowing pigment<br />

preparations with high solid contents and with low viscosities. Used<br />

in paints and coatings <strong>for</strong>mulations, Emulsogen ® TS improves <strong>the</strong><br />

wetting and surface action. As wetting agents, Arkopal ® N 090 and<br />

Arkopal ® N 100 are <strong>the</strong> most effective grades. The excellent emulsifying<br />

properties of a number of Arkopal ® N grades fur<strong>the</strong>rmore allow<br />

<strong>the</strong> preparation of stable emulsions.<br />

Quaternary ammonium compounds<br />

As quaternary fatty ammonium salts are compounds with strong<br />

bactericidal and fungicidal action, Dodigen ® grades find widespread<br />

use in disinfectant cleaners and also help to control algae, <strong>for</strong> instance<br />

in cooling water and swimming baths. In cosmetics, Präpagen ® and<br />

Dodigen ® grades are used e.g. in <strong>the</strong> <strong>for</strong>mulation of hair care products.<br />

In <strong>the</strong> textile industry, Präpagen ® and Dodigen ® grades are<br />

Amine oxides<br />

Amine oxides are good surfactants and, unlike fatty alkyl ammonium<br />

salts, can be used toge<strong>the</strong>r with anionic compounds without impairment<br />

of <strong>the</strong>ir surface-active properties. Our Genaminox ® grades are<br />

used especially in <strong>the</strong> detergent industry, where <strong>the</strong>y serve primarily<br />

Amine salts<br />

Copolymerizable Emulsifiers<br />

Classic anionic and non-ionic emulsifiers stabilize <strong>the</strong> emulsion by<br />

physical interaction. However, <strong>the</strong>se surfactants desorb at high shear<br />

<strong>for</strong>ces or because of electrolytes which <strong>the</strong>n in turn leads to coagulation<br />

of <strong>the</strong> latex particles.<br />

In order to avoid migration and nest <strong>for</strong>mation in <strong>the</strong> polymer film,<br />

Nonionic copolymerizable emulsifiers<br />

Anionic copolymerizable emulsifiers<br />

Clariant has developed a range of copolymerizable emulsifiers, which<br />

chemically bond to <strong>the</strong> polymer, inhibiting migration in <strong>the</strong> film and<br />

resulting in higher latex stability. Additionally, freeze-thaw stability<br />

and shear stability are significantly improved. The products are also<br />

less water absorbant and enable hydrophobic coating surfaces.<br />
