APPLICATIONS

Mono and dibasic phosphate esters produced by the reaction of either alcohols, alcohol ethoxylates or phenyl ethoxylates with polyphosphoric acid or phosphorous pentoxide are anionic surfactants which have the main feature of the stability in alkaline conditions over other surfactants. They have a wide range of properties including outstanding wetting, emulsification, lubrication, coupling activity and detergency. They exhibit the properties of anti-wear and corrosion inhibition either as free esters or in the forms of metal and amine salts. They are used in:
  • Heavy duty alkaline cleaning products
  • Laundry Detergents
  • Emulsion polymerisation
  • Textile auxiliaries
  • Acid cleaners
  • Metal working fluids
  • Emulsifiers
  • Wetters
  • Dispersants
  • Water based lubricants
  • Intermediate for the synthesis of other anionic surfactants
 

Phosphoric acid alkyl esters are also used as alkylation agent for nitrogen heterocyclic compounds and as catalysts to produce phenolic and urea resins. They are used flame retarding plasticizers for cellulose esters, lacquers, plastic and vinyl resins as well as as dispersing agents in plastisols. They are used as solvents in liquid-liquid extractants or seperation agent of metals. They are is used as heat exchange media and as pigment grinding assistants and antifoam agents.
