- Kemsurf ESD60 is a sodium neutralized alkyl ether sulfate and finds application where foaming, wetting and detergency are required.
- Kemsurf ESD60 has good stability in the presence of high electrolyte and hard water environments. Also the product is tolerant to mildly alkaline solutions at ambient temperatures, but tends to hydrolyse in acidic solutions.
- Kemsurf ESD60 is an excellent emulsifier for emulsion polymerization for systems such as:
- Vinyl Acetate
- Vinyl Acetate - Acrylic
- Vinyl Acetate - VeoVa
- Styrene - Acrylic
- Acrylic Monomers
