Deceth-4 phosphate

Deceth-4 phosphate (CAS 52019-36-0) is an ethoxylated phosphate ester surfactant used across personal care and industrial formulations. It functions primarily as an emulsifier, dispersant, and cleaning agent. This chemical offers both surface activity and compatibility with a range of formulation systems. In personal care, it is used to stabilize emulsions in creams, lotions, and conditioning products where a mild anionic surfactant is required.

Textile processing operations use it as a scouring and degreasing agent to remove oils, waxes, and contaminants from fiber surfaces. This process is essential before dyeing or finishing to ensure high-quality results. Leather processing formulators incorporate it into degreasing baths to prepare hides for tanning and treatment. In paper manufacturing, it supports dispersion of process chemicals and aids in surface cleaning applications.

Deceth-4 phosphate is typically supplied as a liquid or paste, depending on concentration and formulation. It is available in technical grade for industrial applications and in cosmetic-grade specifications for personal care use. Packaging is commonly offered in drums and intermediate bulk containers suited to industrial procurement volumes. This ensures efficient handling and storage for large-scale manufacturing and distribution requirements.
