Surfactants & Emulsifiers
Emulsifiers and surfactants are compounds that reduce the surface tension of a liquid or the interfacial tension between two liquids (or between a liquid and a solid). There is a very wide variety of surfactants (anionic, cationic, non-ionic and amphoteric), which can be used for multiple functions: detergents, wetting agents, foaming agents, dispersants, anti-mist additives, anticorrosion additives, stabilizers, and more.

Modern formulations create increasingly stringent requirements for surfactants, such as tolerance to large pH variations, low treat rates, good biodegradability, reduced environmental impact, low odor, low toxicity and high stability.
LUMAR’s objective is to provide support and expertise in the development of your formulations by selecting exactly the surfactant you need:
Among the most common surfactants, we offer:
- Alkylbenzene sulfonates
- Alkyl ether phosphates
- Amine soaps
- Aryl ether phosphates
- Carboxylic acid salts
- EO/PO block copolymers
- Ethoxylated castor oil
- Ethoxylated vegetable oils
- Ethoxylated fatty alcohols (C12 to C18)
- Ethoxylated allyl alcohols
- Partial esters
- Sulfonates
- Phosphate este
- Ethoxylated sorbitol oleates
- Ethoxylated sorbitol hexa-oleates
- Polymeric emulsifiers
- Propoxylated alcohols
- Wetting agents
