This concept is often referred to as steric stabilization. Our products have been developed using a natural backbone which contains anchoring groups. What makes them unique is the introduction of a hydrophilic loop that not only has an affinity for water and polar solvents but also provides both steric hindrance and stability. Also to help boost the hydrophilic nature within the spacing between the particles Lansperse LT87 contains both loops and tails. This helps to give further improvements in stability and flocculation reduction.

Amphokem CADP is a biodegradable high foaming amphoteric surfactant containing both carboxyl and amino groups in its chemical structure. Due to it’s amphoteric nature, in acidic solutions a quaternary ammonium salt is formed resulting in cationic properties. In alkaline conditions it forms a carboxylic salt which gives the product a anioinic behavior. Between the pH limits (approximately 2.5 to 4.5) the cationic and anionic properties are balanced and a “Zwitterion” is formed. This pH range is known as the isoelectric range, within which Amphokem CADP exhibits minimum foaming, wetting and solubility properties.

Kemsurf DSA is fatty alcohol sulfate neutralized as a sodium salt. This product offers good detergency and wetting and is mainly used in cosmetic and toiletry applications. This product is compatible with other anionic and nonionic surfactants. However, as with other products of this chemical type, they tend to hydrolyse in acidic environments. Kemsurf DSA can also be used in the production of Poly Vinyl Chloride (PVC) via emulsion polymerisation.

Lansperse BIO691 is part of our new range of powerful dispersing agents containing components that are from renewable sources. Unlike many bio-based surfactants, this product offers excellent wetting and dispersing properties for a wide range of inorganic and organic pigments and powders. One of the main characteristics that make them different from conventional dispersing agents is how they can attach to a particle substrate. Conventional dispersing agents tend to be linear in structure and attach with one hydrophobe group. The BioLoops are different in the respect that they have two hydrophobes that attach onto a particle substrate making it twice as effective as a conventional dispersing. What makes this particular product unique is the ability to disperse particles in both aqueous and solvent-based mediums. An aqueous dispersion manufactured using Lansperse BIO691 can be incorporated in both solvent and aqueous based paints without any detriment to performance. This property is useful for universal tinters whilst also useful for formulators that want a multi-functional dispersing agent.
