Fatty Acid Methyl Ester Sulfonic Acid (Salt) (α-MES)
Performance and application:
α-MES is a surfactant of high effect made of natural plant and animal oil and fat. It is characterized by good wetting, emulsifying, softening and resistance to hard water, and good solubility,
high degradation rate, little stimulation to skin, high frothing ability. Especially in hard water, it’s frothing ability is better than LAS and K12. With good decontaminating ability, especially
under the existence of non-phosphor agent, it is suitable for confecting low-phosphor and non-phosphor scour. It has high dispersing power of calcium soap, used as the active matter and disperser
of calcium soap in soap, compound soap and soap powder. It can improve and adjust the viscosity of paste detergent and washing powder slurry. The liquid detergent confected with it has high
cleaning power and good low temperature stability. It is also applicable in many industrial fields, such as emulsifier agent of plastic industry, demoulding agent of rubber product, dyeing agent,
pigment, dye of printing and dyeing industry, wetting agent and dispersant of agricultural chemicals, etc.
