- LORODAC 2-24 is a suitable raw material for the production of anionic surfactants, corresponding ethoxysulphates are widely used for both personal care and detergent formulations, due to their relative low skin irritation potential and easy thickening. Due to its low number of EO (low HLB value),
- LORODAC 2-24 is mainly used as a co-emulsifier agent for W/O or O/W emulsions in combination with anionic or non-ionic surfactants with high HLB value.

Storage & Handling
- Shelf Life
- 36 months
- Storage and Handling
- LORODAC 2-24 should preferably be stored in stainless steel tanks. It is suggested to keep the product at temperature below 40°C, it is preferable to avoid heating above 60°C and to store under nitrogen in order to minimize yellowish phenomena.
- LORODAC 2-24 is a cloudy liquid at room temperature and it becomes homogeneous and transparent at temperature about 40°C.
- LORODAC 2-24 becomes a solid wax at temperature lower than 8°C. At room temperature
- LORODAC 2-24 is not water soluble. Shelf-life is 36 months from production date for product in its original and sealed packaging.
