  • Applications

    DI-2-Hexyl sodium sulfosuccinate is an anionic surfactant used as an emulsifier, wetting agent, and dispersant in water-in-oil and oil-in-water systems. In real-world formulations, it serves as a surfactant in household cleaners and cosmetics, aiding solubilization and dispersion of poorly soluble components and improving spread and rinse characteristics. It also functions as an emulsifier and stabilizer in coatings, paints, and inks to enhance wetting and pigment dispersion. It is used as a processing aid in polymer latex production and emulsion polymerization. Additionally, it is commonly evaluated as an agricultural adjuvant to improve wetting, spreading, and surface coverage on crops, and may find use in textile finishing and other industrial applications requiring enhanced wettability and dispersal of additives.
