Kemsurf ASC is a sodium neutralized alkyl ether sulfate and finds application where foaming, wetting and detergency are required. Kemsurf ASC has good stability in the presence of high electrolyte and hard water environments. Also the product is tolerant to mildly alkaline solutions at ambient temperatures, but tends to hydrolyse in acidic solutions.

Kemsurf CA-EH is a calcium salt of a biodegradable dodecylbenzene sulphonic acid. The base acid for Kemsurf CA-EH is manufactured by SO3 sulphonation to produce a product of good color and low inorganic content. Kemsurf CA-EH is a hydrophobic anionic surfactant and functions as an emulsifier for oils and aromatic solvents in the formulation of degreasers. It finds many applications, however, as an emulsifier for pesticide and herbicide systems, especially where spray application is involved. Kemsurf CA-EH may also be used in the emulsification of waxes and hydrocarbon solvents. This product has good compatibility with other anionics and nonionic surfactants and maintains good stability, detergency, foaming power and soil suspension in alkaline, mild acid, low electrolyte and hard or soft water.

Kemsurf OS38 has good foaming and excellent detergency. Kemsurf OS38 can be used in many industrial and domestic applications where good detergency and wetting are required.

Kemsurf ESD is an excellent detergent, it does not show a loss of detergency in brine or hard water. The good solubility characteristics make them especially useful for use in alkaline liquid formulations. It is excellent foaming agent. It shows a pronounced thickening with the addition of sodium chloride to a dilute solution. It is stable to hard water and has excellent lime soap dispersing properties, due to the calcium salt being soluble. Product is prone to hydrolysis in aqueous solution at acid pH and high temperatures (not suitable for use above 50°C).

Kemsurf OT60 is a very effective wetting agent and can be used in many different application areas where wetting of a substrate or particle is essential. This product is also used in emulsion systems and as a co-dispersant in conjunction with other nonionics.
