ROKAnol® L30A is a non-ionic surfactant mainly used as an emulsifier in the emulsion polymerization process. The product is in the form of white wax with a solidification point of approximately 45°C. During the synthesis stage, ROKAnol® L30A emulsifies the monomer and stabilizes the particles of the resulting polymer, preventing coagulation of the resulting dispersion.

Applications

Rokanol L30A is a nonionic emulsifier that has been developed specifically for use in processes for the preparation of aqueous dispersions of polymers and copolymers of styrene, acrylic vinyl emulsion polymerization. L30A ionic surfactants can be used with both anionic and cationic surface-active compounds. Polymeric binders obtained on systems containing emulsifiers Rokanol L30A, can be used in many industries such construction, textile, paper and tanning. Rokanol L30A can also be used as an emulsifier of oils and resins, and as a component of the formulation of waterborne coating materials such decorative and protective paints, primers, preservatives, adhesives.
