Mellisol 3985
TDA-Based Phosphate Ester is a high-performance anionic surfactant derived from Tridecyl Alcohol Ethoxylate (TDA EO) and phosphoric acid. It is designed for demanding applications in metal processing, oilfield chemicals, lubricants, and industrial formulations where excellent wetting, emulsification, detergency, corrosion control, and surface activity are required.
TDA phosphate esters provide a good balance of oil compatibility and water dispersibility, making them suitable for systems containing hydrocarbons, mineral oils, and metal surfaces.

NP-Based Phosphate Ester is a specialty anionic surfactant developed from nonyl phenol ethoxylate (NP EO) chemistry and phosphoric acid esterification. It is widely used in metal industries due to its excellent wetting, emulsification, detergency, dispersion, and surface-active properties.
NP phosphate esters provide strong interfacial activity and are used in metal cleaning, electroplating, metal surface treatment, machining fluids, and protective coating systems where effective removal of oils, improved surface wetting, and stable formulations are required.

Mellisol 3985
Ethyl Hexyl Sulphate (EHS), also known as 2-Ethylhexyl Hydrogen Sulphate, is a specialty anionic surfactant and electrolyte additive used in various metal electrolysis and electroplating processes. It acts mainly as a wetting agent, surface-active additive, and ion-transfer enhancer.
In electrochemical processes, EHS helps improve electrode wetting, reduce surface tension, enhance mass transfer, and promote more uniform metal deposition.


Mellisol 3985
A Powder Wetting & Dispersing Agent is a specialty additive used in metal processing industries to improve the wetting, dispersion, and stabilization of fine metallic powders, mineral powders, pigments, and additives in aqueous or solvent-based systems.
It helps reduce surface tension, improves penetration of liquid media into powder particles, prevents agglomeration, and provides uniform dispersion during processes such as metal powder coating, electrolysis, metal finishing, slurry preparation, and surface treatment applications.

Mellisol 3985
Phosphate Ester (LA based) is a specialty anionic surfactant and surface-active additive used in metal industries for applications such as metal cleaning, electroplating, metal treatment, machining fluids, corrosion protection, and surface modification.
LA-based phosphate esters are generally derived from linear alcohol (LA) ethoxylates reacted with phosphoric acid/phosphorus pentoxide, producing mono- and di-phosphate ester mixtures. They provide excellent wetting, emulsification, detergency, and metal surface interaction properties.
