Detergents & Cleaning

CAS No: 141-43-5

An amine with both alcohol and amine properties, used in detergents, personal care, textile finishing and wood-processing products, and in oil-well and metalworking products for corrosion prevention. It is also used as a cement grinding aid and as a building block in the production of triazine-based corrosion inhibitors.

CAS No: 102-71-6

A low-freezing mixture of triethanolamine and 15% water, lowering the pour point for easier handling. It is a colourless to yellow liquid, fully soluble in water with an ammonia-like odour.

CAS No: 102-71-6

Triethanolamine is primarily used in the manufacture of surfactants such as emulsifiers. It is used in a wide variety of fields including sunscreens, liquid laundry detergents, dishwashing liquids, antifreezes, disinfectants, polishes, paints, corrosion inhibitors and inks. It serves as an organic additive in the grinding of cement clinker, as an active ingredient in ear drops and various cosmetic products in medicine, and as a pH stabilizer across many industries. It is also used as an intermediate in petroleum demulsifiers, a catalyst for polyurethane resins and in rubber vulcanization triggers.

CAS No: 7664-38-2

Phosphoric acid is a crystalline, colourless solid chemical whose salts are defined as phosphates. It is used in the cleaning industry to make detergents and in the textile industry. It is used in acidification processes in the food industry, in polishing in the leather industry and for metal surface cleaning. It is also used in sectors such as paint, construction chemicals, mining and cosmetics.

CAS No: 77-92-9

Citric acid, also known popularly as lemon salt, is an organic compound of the carboxylic acid group. It is found in most plants and in the body fluids of animals. It is widely used in the food industry, as well as in metal surface cleaning, the pharmaceutical industry, construction chemicals and the textile sector.

CAS No: 67-63-0

IPA is a colourless chemical with a low boiling point that is fully miscible with water. As a solvent it is used in vegetable oils and paints, in cellulose derivatives, as an antifreeze in fuel oil and in extraction processes.

CAS No: 1310-73-2

A basic chemical material used as a high-purity reagent. It is widely used in the chemical, metallurgy, papermaking, oil, textile and everyday-use chemical industries.

CAS No: 7722-84-1

Hydrogen peroxide is an environmentally friendly, powerful oxidizing agent used in the bleaching, sterilization and chemical industries. It is a non-toxic, readily available liquid that leaves no stains after use.

CAS No: 2809-21-4

Hydroxyethylidene diphosphonic acid (HEDP) is an odourless organic phosphonate. It is a good sequestrant and is highly effective against calcium, iron, copper and zinc ions. It performs well in water treatment plants, maintains its stability in the presence of chlorine and can dissolve oxidation on metal surfaces. It is a good scale and corrosion inhibitor with good stability at high pH values. It is used in water cooling and treatment systems, swimming-pool detergents, metal surface treatments and the textile sector.
