T-Mulz® 734-2 KS is the potassium salt of an organic phosphate ester that is designed for use in alkaline cleaners and concentrated electrolyte solutions. It improves salt tolerance and functions as a hydrotrope. This product serves as a coupling agent in conjunction with other surfactants to clarify formulations that might otherwise be inhomogeneous. It also has the ability to improve a formula€™s wetting ability and detergency.

Background on Phosphate Esters
  • Phosphate Esters are anionic surface active agents produced by reacting polyphosphoric acid or phosphorous pentoxide with molecules containing hydroxyl groups - commonly ethoxylated moieties or alcohols. Reactions using phosphorous pentoxide result in a mix of mono and di-esters, while products made with polyphosphoric acid are high in mono-ester yield.
  • Which type to use depends upon the properties needed in formulation. Mixed esters products are generally better for emulsification; whereas, mono- ester rich exhibit better hydrotroping properties.
