- It is also a good emulsifier.
Applications & Uses
- Applications
- Compatible Polymers & Resins
- Dosage Form
- Bath & Shower Applications
- Hair Care Applications
- Industrial Additives End Use
- Oral Care Applications
- Use Level
- 1.5 - 3.0 % of the total weight (as foaming agent)
- Applications
- Galaxy™ 789 SP-MB can be used with other anionic, non-ionic or amphoteric surfactants.
- However, due to its anionic character, it should not be used with cationic components like cationic surfactants, cationic dyes, etc.
- Galaxy™ 789 SP-MB is used for a wide range of applications including:
- In tooth-paste as a foaming agent at concentration 1.5 - 3.0% of the total weight.
- In shampoos, bathing bars (syndet and combi-bars), body wash, liquid soap, shower gels, etc. as a surfactant and as a foaming agent.
- In pharmaceuticals as an emulsifier in ointment preparations, as a disintegration agent in tablets, as an intermediate in synthesis of erythromycin estolate and as a surfactant in empty gelatin capsules.
- In textile auxiliaries as a scouring agent.
- In the manufacture of synthetic resins like PVC, as emulsifier and polymerization agent.

Storage & Handling
- Shelf Life
- 2 years
- Storage and Handling Conditions
- Store the material in a clean, dry place at below 40C away from direct heat, sunlight and moisture.
- Slight pH drop is possible over prolonged storage.
- In case of drop in pH, it is fairly safe to use the material as long as the pH is > 7.0.
- In the original sealed condition when stored as suggested, the shelf life of the product is at least two years.
- Soft, easily breakable agglomerates may be formed on storage.
- Since the material is hygroscopic in nature, use the product within a week after opening the bag.
- During storage, to avoid lumping, do not stack more than 7 bags (non-palletized) one above the other and if palletized, keep single pallet on ground or in pigeon hole.
- Jumbo bags should be stored only with crates and should not be stacked one above the other during storage
