Products in Builders & Chelators: Laundry Detergents

MultiTech Chelator A is a high purity, versatile and readily biodegradable chelate. MGDA has three carboxylic groups and, together with the central nitrogen atom, these carboxylic groups provide strong multiple bonds with di- and trivalent metal ions. The small molecular size enables rapid action at low temperatures and short contact time. The MGDA trisodium salt is fully REACH registered.

DiTech Multifunctional A is a Excellent phosphate replacement for water conditioning, 100% bio-based. DiTech Multifunctional A is a low molecular weight linear polyitaconic acid partially neutralized with sodium salt. It demonstrates excellent binding capacity with metal ions, particularly polycationic ions, and especially with calcium. Made from sustainable bio-based feedstock, it is readily biodegradable and has very low toxicity for a preferable environmental profile.

Noverite™ LD920N Polymer is a naturally-derived copolymer designed for reduced energy and water consumption in the manufacture of laundry detergent powders. This chelating polymer can also be used in both powder and liquid laundry detergents to provide anti-encrustation and anti-redeposition benefits.

Noverite™ 301 Polymer is an ampholytic, hydrophilic copolymer that provides excellent affinity to fibers and delivers enhanced and visible softening benefits to your laundry products. It can be used to make clothing more comfortable and towels visibly fluffier. This surface substantive polymer can also be used on many hard surfaces to provide hydrophilic surface modification, resulting in water sheeting, homogeneous drying, anti-fogging, hard water spotting prevention, and easy removal of soap scum on treated surfaces. Noverite™ 301 Polymer is cold processable with an excellent stability profile and shows broad pH compatibility.

Dissolvine M-X is a high purity, versatile and readily biodegradable chelate. It can replace phosophorous-containing builders, enhance the cleaning power of a detergent, and prevent deactivation of surfactants in hard water. The active component is MGDA, a chelating agent with three carboxylic groups. Together with the central nitrogen atom these carboxylic groups provide strong multiple bonds with di- and trivalent metal ions. The small molecular size enables rapid action at low temperatures and in short contact time. The MGDA trisodium salt is fully REACH registered. Excellent low toxicity and low eco-toxicological permit non-dangerous labelling. MGDA-Na3 is listed on EPA’s Safer Chemical Ingredients List in the United States. As an ingredient in cleaning formulations, the MGDA in Dissolvine M-X improves the descaling and cleaning capabilities. This includes whiteness and color care benefits in laundry and stain removal abilities in automatic dish washing (ADW). Since MGDA is also a strong chelating agent for heavy metal ions, such as Fe and Cu, it enhances product stability and prevents negative effects of transition metals.

Dissolvine GL-47-S is a Glutamic acid, N,N-diacetic acid, tetrasodium salt (GLDA) Dissolvine GL is a bio-based, readily biodegradable, cruelty free, globally acceptable and effective chelating agent for Personal Care. With an outstanding environmental profile and friendly INCI name, it’s an ideal choice to bring enhanced preservation, stability, and performance to your formulations. Dissolvine GL is available as a 47% solution in water, Dissolvine GL-47-S in solid form.

Dissolvine M-40 has an assay of min. 81 weight percent. MGDA has three carboxylic groups and, together with the central nitrogen atom, these carboxylic groups provide strong multiple bonds with divalent and trivalent metal ions. The small molecular size enables rapid action at low temperatures and short contact time. The MGDA trisodium salt is fully REACH registered. The excellent low toxicity and low ecotoxicological profile allow for non-dangerous labeling. MGDA-Na3 is listed on EPA’s Safer Chemical Ingredients List in the United States. MDGA is a strong chelate for hard water and transition metal ions. Using MGDA as an ingredient in cleaning formulations improves the descaling and cleaning capabilities. This includes whiteness and color care benefits in laundry and stain removal abilities in automatic dish washing (ADW). Since MGDA is also a strong chelating agent for heavy metal ions, such as Fe and Cu, it enhances product stability and prevents negative effects of transition metals.

Soltellus™ 2101S is a biodegradable, anionic polymer derived from aspartic acid. Designed with versatile benefits, it serves as a polyacrylate substitute in laundry detergent. Beyond its anti-redeposition and soil removal properties, Soltellus™ 2101S offers dissolution, ion sequestering, and antiscaling capabilities. Its performance excels in cold water and all water hardness conditions.

Soltellus™ 2101L is a biodegradable, anionic polymer derived from aspartic acid. This versatile product serves as an alternative to polyacrylate in laundry detergent. It offers multifunctional benefits, including anti-redeposition, soil removal, ion sequestering, and antiscaling properties. Soltellus™ 2101L excels in cold water and various water hardness conditions.

WeylClean® SKS-6 WB is a layered sodium disilicate, a modern water softening system that works via ion exchange processes without the formation of precipitates. It shows excellent calcium and magnesium ion elimination, especially at low water hardness conditions. It is compatible with sensitive detergent additives and has good heavy metal binding capacity.

DeVere Chemical Boost Builder (BB) is a highly concentrated alkaline silicate builder for use in commercial laundry washing machines. BB aids detergency to improve soil and stain removal. BB neutralizes acid soils and breaks down animal fat and vegetable oils. Use BB with DeVere Boost Detergent, or DeVere EcoBoost Environmentally Safe Detergent.

DeVere Chemical Boost Detergent Plus Builder combines detergent and builder in one product for use in commercial laundry washing machines. BDB contains surfactants, emulsifiers, builders, sequestration agents and an anti-deposition ingredient for superior soil removal. BDB lifts greasy stains and neutralizes soils. BDB's whitener brightens whites and colors.

Adi-Pure® Adipic acid (hexanedioic acid) is a dicarboxylic acid that is predominately used in the production of nylon 6,6. Other applications include uses as a monomer for polyurethanes and polyamides, and a raw material for plasticizers, wet strength paper resins, copolymer adhesives and binders, and more.

Biopure™ GLDA is a powerful chelating agent made from natural, biodegradable, renewable raw materials. It exhibits excellent metal chelation properties, high water solubility and can be used over a wide pH range.

Itaconix® DSP™ 2K™ Excellent phosphate replacement for water conditioning, 100% bio-based. Itaconix® DSP™ 2K™ is a low molecular weight linear polyitaconic acid partially neutralized with sodium salt.
