Hydrotropes enhance the solubility and compatibility of surfactants and other compounds in laundry and cleaning products.
Many solutes in cleaning formulations – such as traditional surfactants, builders and electrolytes – can have compatibility issues. This can result in turbidity.
Hydrotropes, with a polar and a nonpolar end, can arrange themselves around these compounds to promote solubility and dispersion, improving clarity and stability. Hydrotropes can also enhance product foaming and lubrication.
Our Life Science division is a leading manufacturer and supplier of hydrotropes, surfactants and other key ingredients for your product formulations.
