Properties and Applications

Specifications Properties and Applications
GMS Insoluble in water, excellent W/O emulsifying properties. Used in food industry as emulsifier for candies, chocolates, foaming agent for cakes, defoaming agent for soy milk; dispersion agent for oil-soluble dyes. Also used in pharmaceuticals for emulsifying ointments, creams, suppositories, aerosols; in daily chemical industry as emulsifier, lubricant, shampoo detergent; also used as internal antistatic agents for PE, PP, PVC, typically used at 0.5-2.0%.
GMO Insoluble in water, with emulsifying, thickening, defoaming properties. Used in daily chemical industry for creams, cosmetic emulsifiers, thickeners, light-blocking agents, defoamers; in textile industry as fabric finishing agent; also used as pigment grinding additive. Also used as internal antistatic agents for PE, PP, PVC, typically used at 0.5-2.0%.
GML Insoluble in water, with emulsifying, lubricating properties. Widely used in food, cosmetics, textile, leather industries.
BPMS 1. Insoluble in water, with emulsifying, lubricating, solubilizing properties. 2. In food industry, used as cake emulsifier; in daily chemical industry, used in creams, cosmetic emulsifiers to enhance lubricity, delicacy, stability, moisturization; in pharmaceutical industry as emulsifier for ointments, creams, emulsions, suppositories.
BPMO Insoluble in water, with emulsifying, lubricating properties. Widely used in cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, textiles, leather, coatings, plastics, pesticides and other industries.
BPML Insoluble in water, mainly used as emulsifier, light-blocking agent for shampoo, also used as pigment grinding additive.
EHMS Insoluble in water, soluble in most solvents, mineral oils, vegetable oils; used as lubricant in textile oils and rust preventives; also used as plasticizer in papermaking industry.
CMO 1. Insoluble in water, soluble in mineral oils and most organic solvents, good lubricant. 2. Can be used as softener and lubricant. Used in chemical synthesis, lubrication modification of mineral oils; can be formulated into cutting oils, laminating oils, textile oils and rust preventives. Used in synthetic oils, protective products and pigments and coatings.
Emulsifier FM 1. Disperses in water, forms emulsion, soluble in oils, used as emulsifier for fats. 2. In metal processing, used for cleaning, lubrication, polishing and rust prevention of black metals and aluminum alloys. 3. In pesticide processing, used as W/O emulsifier. 4. In ink industry, used as W/O emulsifier for preparing inks, pigments and latex paints, to enhance pigment brightness, improve flowability; in pigment ink solution, adding 3-5% of this product, can significantly improve the flowability and bright color of pigments; in ink manufacturing, emulsifier, when preparing ink, can quickly emulsify ink, facilitate kneading and refining, and improve the brightness and lubricity of ink products, generally used in 2-6%.
