  • Applications

    Disodium 4-[(dodecan-4-yl)oxy]-4-oxo-3-sulfonatobutanoate primarily functions as an anionic surfactant with a long hydrophobic tail and a sulfonate head; in practice it is considered for use as an emulsifier and wetting agent. It is commonly evaluated for applications in household and industrial cleaning formulations, coatings and inks where pigment dispersion and surface wetting are important. It can serve as a processing aid or stabilizer in polymer and plastics formulations, helping to improve dispersion of fillers or compatibility of additives. It may also be used as a formulation additive in cosmetics/personal care as a surfactant/emulsifier, and as an intermediate or building block for preparing other sulfonated esters and specialty surfactants. In agrochemical formulations, it can function as a surfactant adjuvant to improve spreading and wetting of active ingredients, and more broadly, in cleaning and formulation chemistry across several sectors.
