Sodium Petroleum Sulfonate (SPS)
Product introduction:
Sodium Petroleum Sulfonate (SPS) is an anionic surfactant that appears as a dark brown viscous liquid with a mild odor. Due to its dual molecular structure (a polar head and a nonpolar hydrocarbon tail), it effectively reducesthe surface tension of both polar and nonpolar liquids. Its strong emulsifying and dispersing properties make it widely used across various industries.

Features and Benefits:
- Strong emulsifier with high thermal and chemical stability
- Provides effective HLB control and enhances emulsion stability
- Amphiphilic structure (combination of hydrophobic and hydrophilic parts)
- Excellent compatibility with a wide range of formulations
- Improves solubility in soluble oils
- Provides anti-rust and anti-corrosion protection
- Multi-functional performance
Applications:
- Lubricants & Metalworking: Used as an emulsifier and dispersing agent in soluble oils, cutting oils, and industrial greases. When blended with other additives, it forms a thin hydrophobic film on metal surfaces that repels moisture, providing effective rust prevention and corrosion protection.
- Paint & Resin Industry: Acts as a pigment dispersant, enhancing color stability and preventing particle agglomeration.
- Agriculture: Used as an emulsifier and dispersing agent in the formulation of some toxins and pesticides.
