APE-free surfactants.Two new surfactants that are free of alkyl alkyl /al·kyl/ (al´k'l) the monovalent radical formed when an aliphatic hydrocarbon loses one hydrogen atom. al·kyl n. phenol ethoxylates (APE) have been developed by Rhodia. Rhodapex[R] LA 300 SB is a highly ethoxylated anionic an·i·on n. A negatively charged ion, especially the ion that migrates to an anode in electrolysis. [From Greek, neuter present participle of anienai, to go up : ana-, ana- emulsifier emulsifier /emul·si·fi·er/ (e-mul´si-fi?er) an agent used to produce an emulsion. e·mul·si·fi·er n. An agent used to make an emulsion of a fixed oil. designed for latex chemical stability that provides a low pour point and dioxane di·ox·ane n. A flammable, potentially explosive, colorless liquid, C4H8O2, used as a solvent for fats, greases, and resins and in various products including paints, lacquers, glues, cosmetics, and fumigants. level (<100 ppm). Rhodasurf[R] 3065 is a non-ionic emulsifier designed for the emulsion polymerization of acrylic and styrene acrylic systems. It is reportedly effective in replacing APEs ethoxylated with 20 to 30 moles at the same usage level. For further information, contact: www.rhodia-hpcii.com. |
