Reaction Chemistry
1. Phosphate Esters
Acid ester via phosphoric anhydride and polyphosphoric acid
synthesis routes.
Sodium, potassium and amine salts of phosphate esters ranging
from 30 - 80% active.
2. Carboxylate type surfactants where an alcohol is reacted with
sodium chloroacetate to yield a crypto anionic which can
function like its phospate counterpart.
3. Sulfated Alcohols via the Sulfamic acid route. Custom
Synthesis is a major supplier of sodium 2-Ethyl Hexyl Sulfate (
40% solids ). This is similar in the industry to Sulfatex OA.
Our name is Custom 8425. We also manufacture sulfated NP-5.
These reactions take place in our 2000 gallon glass lined
reactor.
4. High temperature esters made from mono and polyfunctional
alcohols and acids. Our hot oil equipment is capable of
performing at temperatures up to 280 C.
5. Amidation where a fatty acid is reacted with a polyfunctional
amine to yield an amido-ester for use in fabric softeners.
Emulsion Chemistry
Our reactors
are tag tested such that we can make polyethylene emulsions
throughout the functional range.
We
manufacture both micro and macro silicone emulsions in our shear
mixing vessel (Meyers mixer).
