Naxcat® P65D is a light-colored product, 65% active in water. It is the mildest of our acid products and is particularly useful in electroplating applications where color is important. It offers an advantage in such applications due to its light color.

Naxcat® XSA-90 is a strong, concentrated organic acid that is completely liquid. For ease of handling as compared with TSA-95. Naxcat® XSA-90 will not crystallize at low temperatures, offering acid strength and fluidity. It is comparable in strength to mineral acids such as sulfuric acid, but is especially suitable for organic reactions where an inorganic, mineral acid could cause charring, oxidation, or an unwanted chemical reaction.

Kemsurf CA-EH is a calcium salt of a biodegradable dodecylbenzene sulphonic acid. The base acid for Kemsurf CA-EH is manufactured by SO3 sulphonation to produce a product of good color and low inorganic content. Kemsurf CA-EH is a hydrophobic anionic surfactant and functions as an emulsifier for oils and aromatic solvents in the formulation of degreasers. It finds many applications, however, as an emulsifier for pesticide and herbicide systems, especially where spray application is involved. Kemsurf CA-EH may also be used in the emulsification of waxes and hydrocarbon solvents. This product has good compatibility with other anionics and nonionic surfactants and maintains good stability, detergency, foaming power and soil suspension in alkaline, mild acid, low electrolyte and hard or soft water.

Alpha Olefin Sulfonate Synsul™ AOS is an aqueous solution of sodium olefin sulfonates with a molecular weight of approximately 325. This non-ionic surfactant is highly effective as the foaming agent in many different personal care applications as well as fracturing fluids for subterranean formations. It also has utility as a foaming agent in enhanced oil recovery and is an efficient component for the clean-up of gas producing wells. Synsul™ AOS exhibits excellent heat stability and is compatible with a wide variety of other additives. It is especially suited for use in freshwater systems and is readily biodegradable.

Oleum Sulfonated Synthetic Sodium Sulfonates Synsul™ 415, 450, and 500 are oil soluble, oleum sulfonated synthetic sodium sulfonates. Synsul™ 415 and 450 have good affinity for water making them excellent components in emulsifier packages. Synsul™ 500 displaces water, making it a good rust and corrosion inhibitor component.

Synthetic Sodium Sulfonates Synsul™ NA is a series of synthetic sodium sulfonates of various molecular weights. These products are carefully and selectively manufactured to ensure consistent quality with little variation from batch to batch. The lower molecular weight products, Synsul™ NA 420 and Synsul™ NA 450, have good affinity for water making them excellent components in emulsifier packages. The higher molecular weight products, Synsul™ NA 480, and Synsul™ NA 535, have less affinity for water thereby imparting rust and corrosion inhibiting characteristics. The advantages of these products include lower viscosity for ease of handling, lighter color, and greater batch-to-batch consistency.
