Kemsurf SBE30

Kemsurf SBE30 is a sodium salt of a biodegradable dodecyl benzene sulphonic acid. The base acid for Kemsurf SBE30 is manufactured by SO3 sulphonation to produce a product of good color and low inorganic content. Kemsurf SBE30 finds use as a detergent, emulsifier,wetting agent and as an emulsifier in emulsion polymerization processes. 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 in hard or soft water.
