Engineered Solutions for Complex Applications
Our speciality chemicals division leverages advanced chemical engineering to deliver high-performance surfactants, emulsifiers, and functional additives. With expertise across five core chemistries, we provide tailored solutions for industries demanding exceptional performance, consistency, and regulatory compliance.
From industrial cleaning compounds to textile auxiliaries, agricultural adjuvants to specialty lubricants, our product portfolio serves diverse applications where standard chemicals fall short.
Five Core Chemistries
Mastering the fundamental chemical processes that power specialty chemical innovation
Ethoxylation
Non-ionic surfactants with tunable HLB values (2-20+). Water-soluble at higher EO moles, oil-soluble at lower moles. Excellent emulsification, wetting, and detergency properties.
Propoxylation
Low-foam surfactants with enhanced hydrophobicity. Superior lubricity, water resistance, and defoaming properties. Ideal for metalworking and industrial cleaning.
Esterification
Emulsifiers and emollients with excellent skin feel. Easy rinsability, good lubrication, and compatibility with both oil and water phases. Biodegradable options available.
Etherification
Stable ether linkages resistant to hydrolysis. Long-lasting emollient and softening effects. Excellent thermal stability and compatibility with diverse formulation bases.
Phosphation
Anionic surfactants with anti-corrosion and extreme pressure (EP) properties. Excellent metal surface affinity, lubricity under load, and emulsification of mineral oils.

Technical Information
Common questions about our specialty chemicals
Fatty alcohol ethoxylates (like Laureth, Ceteareth, Steareth) are non-ionic surfactants used as emulsifiers, wetting agents, and detergents. They're essential in textile processing, industrial cleaning, paints, and agrochemical formulations.
Tallow amine ethoxylates and coco-amine ethoxylates are the industry-standard adjuvants for glyphosate herbicides. They enhance herbicide uptake and are typically used at 5-15 moles of ethylene oxide for optimal performance.
Yes, we offer custom ethoxylation from 2 to 100+ moles of ethylene oxide depending on the substrate. This allows precise HLB value control for specific emulsification, solubilization, or wetting requirements.
Hydrogenated castor oil ethoxylates (HCO) have better oxidation stability, lighter color, and lower odor than regular castor oil ethoxylates. HCO is preferred for applications requiring longer shelf life and premium quality.
Castor oil ethoxylates (CE-30, CE-35, CE-40) and styrenated phenol ethoxylates are commonly used in pesticide EC formulations. They provide stable emulsions when the concentrate is diluted with water for application.
Yes, we offer NPE-free alternatives including fatty alcohol ethoxylates, isotridecyl alcohol ethoxylates, and linear alcohol ethoxylates that meet environmental regulations while maintaining performance in industrial applications.
