Function:
1. It can be used in the production of plasticizers .
2. It can be used to synthesize surfactants, such as sodium 2-ethylhexyl sulfate.
3. It can be used in the production of defoamer to improve production efficiency and product quality.
4. The role of dispersant, help pigment, filler and other solid particles evenly dispersed in the liquid medium.
5. In the mining industry, it serves as a beneficiation remembers the role, so as to improve the grade and recovery rate of the ore.
6. The function of petroleum additives, used to improve the performance of fuel.
7. It is an excellent organic solvent that can dissolve many organic compounds.
Application:
1.2 – Ethylhexanol is an important raw material for the manufacture of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) plasticizers, widely used in the production of PVC products, such as plastic film, pipe, etc..
2. It also has some applications in rubber production, oil and gas extraction, photo development, etc.
3. It can be used in the production of surfactants, commonly used in detergents, cleaners, cosmetics, textile printing and dyeing industries.
4. As the raw material of antifoam agent, it can effectively eliminate the foam in the liquid, in the process of papermaking, printing and dyeing, coating, fermentation and other industrial processes.
5. Used as dispersant in coating, ink, rubber, plastic and other industries to improve the color uniformity and performance stability of products.
6. In the mining industry as an ore dressing agent, help to improve the efficiency of ore flotation.
7. As a petroleum additive, it can enhance the combustion efficiency of fuel, reduce exhaust emissions, and at the same time, it can also play a role in rust prevention and antioxidant.
8. Widely used in dissolution, dilution, extraction and other processes, can also be used directly as an organic solvent for paints, coatings, photographic, paper and textile, light industry and other industries.
