Overview of Dowfax 2A1
Dowfax 2A1 is an industrial anionic surfactant widely used in manufacturing processes where high detergency, excellent wetting, strong emulsification, and resilience under harsh conditions are required. Known for its reliable performance across a wide pH range and in the presence of electrolytes and hard water conditions - making it suitable for demanding industrial environments.
Dowfax 2A1 is commonly recognised by its chemical name: disulfonated alkyl diphenyl oxide surfactant, and it is valued for consistent batch-to-batch quality and predictable surface-active behaviour.
Applications of Dowfax 2A1
Industrial Cleaning & Detergent Formulations
Dowfax 2A1 is widely utilised for industrial and institutional cleaning formulations where strong wetting, soil removal and surface penetration are required. It boasts consistent performance even in high temperature or alkaline conditions; in fact, it's frequently evaluated alongside Alkyl Phenol Ethoxylate when designing detergent systems.
Emulsion Polymerisation & Chemical Processing
Dowfax 2A1 can be used as either a primary or secondary emulsifier in emulsion polymerisation processes to help control particle size and ensure stable emulsions during industrial chemical manufacturing processes. It may be comparable to linear Alkyl Benzene Sulfonate depending on your formulation needs.
Oilfield & Process Industry Applications
Dowfax 2A1 can also be found in oilfield and process industry formulations where tolerance to salinity, hardness and temperature variations is crucial to providing consistent surfactant performance.
Safety & Handling Guidelines
- Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area
- Keep containers tightly sealed and clearly labelled
- Avoid inhalation of mist or spray during handling
- Avoid prolonged contact with skin and eyes
- Use protective gloves, goggles, and suitable industrial clothing
- Maintain proper ventilation during bulk handling
- Dispose of material and packaging as per local regulations
