Isomeric tridecyl alcohol phosphate E-1306P is mainly used in six major industrial fields: metalworking, industrial cleaning, textile printing and dyeing, leather processing, pesticide formulations, and electroplating.

Detailed Description

Isomeric tridecyl alcohol phosphate E-1306P (CAS No.: 9043-30-5) is an anionic surfactant with the chemical name isomeric tridecyl alcohol polyoxyethylene ether phosphate. Thanks to its excellent extreme pressure lubricity, outstanding wetting and penetrating ability, and superior chemical stability (maintaining activity in acidic, alkaline, and hard water systems), this product is widely used in multiple industrial fields.

In the field of metalworking fluids, it acts as an efficient extreme pressure lubricant and corrosion inhibitor. During metal processing such as cutting and forming, it significantly reduces friction and wear while effectively protecting workpieces and equipment from chemical attack, thereby extending tool and mold life. In industrial alkaline cleaners, its excellent alkaline resistance and penetrating ability allow it to quickly wet and strip heavy oil stains and carbon deposits from metal surfaces under high alkalinity conditions, making it a key component in high-performance degreasers and cleaners.

In addition, this product can be used as a pretreatment auxiliary agent (scouring agent and penetrant) in textile printing and dyeing to help the alkali liquor uniformly penetrate into fiber gaps and efficiently remove natural impurities such as cotton wax and pectin. In leather processing, it is used in degreasing and fatliquoring processes to impart a soft hand feel to leather. In pesticide formulations, it serves as an emulsifier to enhance the cold and hot storage chemical stability of the liquid formulation. In electroplating baths, it acts as a synergistic additive to improve the dispersion and throwing power of the plating solution, enhancing the density and brightness of the coating.

Six Application Industries and Core Processes

Application Industry Core Process Function
Metalworking Fluids Cutting, forming, grinding, etc. Extreme pressure lubricant and corrosion inhibitor, reducing friction and wear, inhibiting scratches and rust
Industrial Alkaline Cleaners Metal surface degreasing, oil removal, carbon deposit removal Alkali-resistant penetration and emulsification, quickly stripping heavy oil stains and carbon deposits
Textile Printing and Dyeing Pretreatment scouring, penetration processes Scouring agent, penetrant, improving fiber wetting uniformity, enhancing capillary effect and whiteness
Leather Processing Raw hide degreasing, fatliquoring processes Emulsifying and dispersing natural oils, promoting uniform absorption of fatliquor, imparting soft hand feel
Pesticide Formulations Preparation of emulsifiable concentrates and emulsion concentrates Emulsifier, reducing oil-water interfacial tension, enhancing dilution emulsification performance and storage stability
Electroplating Addition to electroplating bath Synergist and auxiliary brightener, improving dispersion and throwing power, reducing pinholes and pits

Application Suggestions

In formulation design, it is recommended to adjust the dosage according to different application scenarios. In metalworking fluid formulations, it is typically used in emulsified oils, semi-synthetic, and fully synthetic cutting fluid systems. In industrial cleaners, it is especially suitable for high-alkalinity formulations. This product is not prone to hydrolysis or precipitation in acidic, alkaline, or hard water systems, offering wide system applicability and suitability for complex process conditions.

Precautions

  • This product is an acidic anionic phosphate ester. Wear impermeable gloves and chemical safety goggles during operation to avoid skin and eye contact.
  • Recommended storage temperature range: 5°C – 40°C. Prevent freezing and high-temperature deterioration.
  • Harmful to aquatic life. Do not discharge directly into water bodies without treatment.
  • For detailed physical and chemical parameters and toxicological data, please refer to the Product Technical Data Sheet (TDS) and Safety Data Sheet (SDS).
