Product Range
Surface active agents, or short Surfactants, are usually organic compounds that are amphiphilic, meaning they contain both hydrophobic and hydrophilic groups and are therefore soluble in both organic solvents and water. They reduce the surface tension of a liquid by adsorbing at the liquid-gas interface, allowing easier spreading, and lower the interfacial tension between two liquids, e.g. between oil and water, by adsorbing at the liquid-liquid interface. Surfactants are used as emulsifiers, wetting agents, dispersants and stabilizers for different chemical and industrial applications. The selection of surfactants described in this brochure is offered for the following application areas:

Air entraining agents for the construction industry Antifoaming agents Auxiliaries for the sugar industry Disinfecting agents Dispersing agents for pigments Emulsifiers for bitumen emulsions Emulsifiers for emulsion polymerization Emulsifiers for micro- and macro emulsions of fats, hydrocarbons and silicon oils

Emulsifiers for polyolefin wax emulsions Organophilic bentonite Wetting agents for adhesives Wetting agents for coatings, e.g. in building, construction, textile and paper Wetting agents for electroplating processes Wetting agents for emulsions, dispersions, polymers, resins Wetting agents for hard surfaces like ceramics, wood, plastics and metals

Depending on the formal charge of their head, surfactants can also be classified into anionic, cationic, non-ionic, and amphoteric (dual charge) groups. The product overview on the following pages is organized in this manner.

Emulsogen EPN range

Products from the Emulsogen EPN range serve as efficient emulsifiers which reduce the grit level during polymerization and improve dispersion properties such as freeze-thaw stability, electrolyte resistance and sheer stability. They are suitable for emulsion polymerization of olefinic monomers or vinyl acetate together with other vinyl esters, acrylates, vinyl chloride and ethylene, in acrylic and styrene/acrylic dispersions as well as in butadiene /styrene latex. Emulsogen EPN also finds widespread use in pigment preparations, paints and coatings as a dispersing and wetting agent.

Emulsogen LCN range

Emulsogen LCN is a preferred surfactant in various application fields, such as emulsion polymerization, coatings, adhesives, construction and detergents. Specifically, as emulsifier for emulsion polymerization, Emulsogen LCN improves the shear, temperature and electrolyte stability of polymer dispersions. At the same time, it can be used in inverse emulsion polymerization of water soluble monomers in hydrocarbons and in emulsions of oils, fats, silicon oils, polyolefin waxes, alkyd resins, mineral oils etc. As a medium foaming wetting agent in aqueous solutions, emulsions, architectural paints, industrial and wood coatings, Emulsogen LCN reduces the surface tension of the aqueous medium and improves the wetting of hard surfaces. It is an efficient dispersing and wetting agent in aqueous pigment preparations and can be added to emulsion paints to improve the scrub resistance.

Low-foaming Genapol PF 10, 20, 40 and 80 grades are used as a surfactant and defoamer in detergents and cleaning agents. They are also used as an emulsifier in emulsion polymerization, improving the emulsion stability and preventing foam during the spray drying of dispersion powders. As a wetting agent in aqueous coatings, they reduce the surface tension of the coating formulation, improve the stability and shelf life and the adhesion of the coating onto the coated surface. They also serve as intermediate in chemical reactions.

Genapol PF 80 Powder can also be added to solid admixtures in the construction industry to improve the wetting and redispersing of the powder, resulting in higher plastification and improved workability and overall performance of the plaster. Genapol PF 30 can be applied as a wetting agent and emulsifier for oils, waxes, paraffin and silicones, as emulsifier for emulsion polymerization of acrylic monomers, styrene and vinyl acetate, as lubricant for polymers and resin processing and as reactant for polyethers, polyesters and polyurethanes.

Because of its interfacial activity and low foaming behaviour, Genapol ED 3030 is especially suitable for the manufacture of low foaming cleaners. Due to its good lubricity, Genapol B is used for the manufacture of aqueous metal working fluids in combination with suitable corrosion inhibitors. Genapol ED 3030 is resistant against water hardness, metal salts, acids and alkalis in practice-orientated concentrations. Genapol ED 3060 is a low-foaming wetting and disper-

sing agent for aqueous paints and coatings, in particular for white emulsion paints tinted with waterborne pigment preparations. It functions as paint stabilizer and tinting strength enhancer, improving the compatibility of pigments and minerals with polymers and binders and preventing rub-out effects and flocculation of organic pigments during drying of the paint film. Genapol PN 30 is a low foaming lubricant for synthetic metal working fluids.

The powder form Hostapur OSB is also used as air entraining and wetting agent for mortars and plasters based on cement, gypsum or lime. Rapidly soluble and highly efficient, it leads to a faster wetting of the solid particles, enables fast air-entrainment and develops mirco foam at a controllable air content of 20 - 35% in a short period of time. Furthermore, it improves the plasticity and workability of plasters.

As quaternary fatty ammonium salts are compounds with strong bactericidal and fungicidal action, Dodigen grades find widespread use in disinfectant cleaners and also help to control algae, for instance in cooling water and swimming baths. In cosmetics, Prpagen and Dodigen grades are used e.g. in the formulation of hair care products. In the textile industry, Prpagen and Dodigen grades are used as softeners, re-wetting and antistatic and antibacterial finishing agents and have proved to be successful levelling agents and retarders in acrylic fibre dyeing. Other applications include the use as acid inhibitors, emulsifiers, dispersing agents, vulcanization accelerators, antistatic agents and auxillaries in paint applications.

Copolymerizable Emulsifiers
Classic anionic and non-ionic emulsifiers stabilize the emulsion by physical interaction. However, these surfactants desorb at high shear forces or because of electrolytes which then in turn leads to coagulation of the latex particles. In order to avoid migration and nest formation in the polymer film, Clariant has developed a range of copolymerizable emulsifiers, which chemically bond to the polymer, inhibiting migration in the film and resulting in higher latex stability. Additionally, freeze-thaw stability and shear stability are significantly improved. The products are also less water absorbant and enable hydrophobic coating surfaces.
