Alkyl Ether Carboxylates
Extremely mild and compatible with other surfactants as well as ideal as co–surfactants and coupling agents.
Our range includes:
EMPICOL® CBJ*
Laureth-11 Carboxylic Acid
EMPICOL® CBJ is a highly active, free-acid, anionic co-surfactant with moderate foaming, designed to improve mildness. Neutralization of acid can be achieved with a wide range of neutralizing agents. For use in cleansing products such as shampoo, body wash, and baby care. Stable over a wide range of pH. Good detergency and emulsification properties.
EMPICOL® CED5*
Laureth-5 Carboxylic Acid
EMPICOL® CED5 is a highly active, free-acid, anionic co-surfactant with moderate foaming, designed to improve mildness. Neutralization of acid can be achieved with a wide range of neutralizing agents. For use in cleansing products such as shampoo, body wash, and baby care. Stable over a wide range of pH. Good detergency and emulsification properties.
Pureact T-A
Trideceth-7 Carboxylic Acid
Pureact T-A is an ethylene oxide condensate. When converted to a salt by neutralization, a crypto-anionic salt of the base is formed. Pureact T-A is compatible with non-ionics, anionics and cationics with detersive wetting and emulsifying properties. It can be used as a buffer in acid detergents, as a detergent, wetting agent and dispersant in metal cleaning and processing, as a compatibilizing agent in cationic-anionic formulations, and in conditioning shampoos containing anionic detergents and cationic polymers.
