EMULPHOR OPS 25

Emulphor OPS 25 = Disponil 25 S = Disponil OPS 25 

Emulphor OPS 25 is special emulsifier for the manufacture of emulsion polymers, especially for vinylacetate or acrylic homopolymers and copolymers.

On account of its chemical composition, Emulphor OPS 25 combines the advantages of non-ionic and anionic emulsifiers, and can therefore be used as the sole emulsifier for emulsion polymerization.

Composition of Emulphor OPS 25:  Alkyl aryl polyglycol ether sulphate, sodium salt

Specificationa of Emulphor OPS 25:
Anionic surfactant: 28 - 31 % (Q-C 3062.0)
Sodium chloride < 0.5 % (DGF H-III 9)
Sodium sulphate < 1.0 % (DGF H-III 8a)
pH-value (5 %) 7.0 - 8.0 (Q-P 1042.1)

Additional data

Appearance:colourless to yellow, clear liquid

Ionic character: Anionic 


Dosage of Emulphor OPS 25:
The amount of Emulphor OPS 25 required depends upon the type and quantity of the monomers used as well as on the polymerization process and the desired properties of the polymer dispersion.

In general 1 - 5 % as emulsifier calculated on the monomer content is used.

Miscellaneous Storage:
It is recommended to store Emulphor OPS 25at room temperature and to protect it from heat and frost. 
Subject to storage in the original sealed containers Emulphor OPS 25 is durable for at least 12 months.
Subject to appropriate storage under the usual storage and temperature conditions, our products are durable for at least 1 year.

Emulphor OPS 25 is a high-molecular weight ether sulphate. 
Emulphor OPS 25 acts as an ionic emulsifier. 
Emulphor OPS 25 can be combined with nonionic Emulan grades in order to achieve the desired properties such as particle size or emulsion stability. 
Emulphor OPS 25 is used in the emulsion polymerization of acrylate and methacrylate esters, styrene and vinyl esters. 
Emulphor OPS 25 is suitable for homopolymerization as well as in copolymerization of these monomers.

— at high pigment loads
— at low viscosity
— high temperature stability and shelf life.

Usage levels: 15 – 80 % based on the pigments.

Emulsions of solvents, oils and waxes in water
Emulphor OPS 25 produces stable, low foaming emulsions of organic solvents, hydrocarbons, oils and waxes in water.
Usage levels: 1 – 20 g/l Emulphor OPS 25 in the emulsion.

Storage and Shelf Life:
Please keep the product in a dry and clean place. 
When the product has cooled down to less than 5°C, please heat it up to 25°C – 30°C, after stirring it is ready to use again. 
The shelf life is at least two years when stored in tightly closed containers at 20-25°C in a clean and aerated place. 
After this period the product should be analyzed for extension of the shelf life.

Safety:
