Ethanolamines

Applications in formulations for agricultural use, home care, coatings, and oil and gas.

Ethoxylated Alcohols

Ethoxylated alcohols are used as surfactants in a wide variety of products, such as household hygiene and cleaning, personal hygiene, textile auxiliaries, among others

Fatty Alcohol (C16/C18, C16, C14)

Fatty alcohols are used in the formulation of creams, cosmetic lotions, shampoos and conditioners, fabric fiber lubricating agents, additives for plastics and lubricants, antioxidants for plastics and, among others; and are used in the chemical industry for the production of ethoxylated fatty alcohol.

Flames Retardants

They consist of a very wide range of organic molecules, usually brominated, chlorinated and phosphorous compounds that work as flame retardants for the various applications in multiple plastics used in industry, such as expandable polystyrene (EPS), polypropylene (PP), polyethylene (PP ), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), polyester, among others.

Glyoxylic Acid

In cosmetics, glyoxylic acid is used in hair care formulations.

Hidroxypropyl Methylcelulose (HPMC)

Construction.

MPDO - Metilpropano Diol

MPO is a colorless, low viscosity and low toxicity liquid. Being a short chain diol and two reactive primary hydroxyls, it can be used in the production of a series of resins, such as unsaturated polyester, saturated polyester, alkyds, polyurethane and acrylics.

– Diesters and polyesters made with MPO do not crystallize easily, and therefore are a good resource in PVC plasticizers.
– The versatility of using MPO goes beyond resins, when purified, it can be used as a vehicle in fragrance formulations.

NMP - N Metilpirrolidona

NMP is a polar (aprotic) solvent with low toxicity, high boiling point, powerful solvency, good selectivity and stability. This product is widely used in the extraction of aromatics and purification of acetylene and diolefin. It can also be used as a solvent and vehicle in polymerization processes of so-called engineering plastics. In addition to these, it finds applications in aromatic fibers, pesticide insulation, pigments and detergents for surface treatment.

Pentane

It is used as a blowing agent for expanded polystyrene (EPS).

Phosphoric Acid

Phosphoric acid has applications in the food and pharmaceutical industry. The technical grade has uses in the chemical, textile, metallurgical and fertilizer industries.

Propylene Glycol

Cosmetic and pharmaceutical use, as well as various industrial applications.

PTMEG

PTMEG is used in polyurethane elastomers to provide good mechanical properties.

PVP - Polivinilpirrolidona

– PVP K90 is widely used as an adhesive agent in stick adhesives.
– PVP K90 is an excellent film former in cosmetic applications;
eliminating split ends when used in shampoo formulations, for example.
– PVP series P are filtration agents for the production of beverages, such as wine and beer.

Specialty Mineral Oils

Lubricants and metalworking fluids.

THF - Tetraidrofurano

THF can be used as a reagent, solvent and intermediate in the chemical industry. Especially used as a solvent for PVC in the production of adhesives. It is widely used as a solvent for surface coatings, anti-corrosion coatings, printing inks, tapes and film coatings.

Trichloroethylene (TCE)

Used as an industrial solvent, degreasing agent and in paint, thinner and adhesive formulations.

Xanthan Gum

Thickener for food and industrial use.

White Cement

Construction.

EXPORT

70° Ethanol

Known as hydrated alcohol, it is used in domestic, industrial cleaning, and in the extraneutral version it is applied in asepsis in hospital environments.

Anhydrous Ethanol

Anhydrous ethanol is used in the chemical industry and as a solvent for paints and varnishes.

Crude Glycerin

Crude glycerin is used in the chemical industry as a versatile and competitive reaction intermediate, for example in the production of epichlorohydrin – a precursor to epoxy and phenolic resins.

Extra Neutral Ethanol

Extra neutral ethanol is free of impurities and has a mild and characteristic odor and is used in applications such as drinks, food, cosmetics and pharmaceuticals.

Extra Organic Neutral Ethanol

Extra organic neutral ethanol has high purity for applications such as beverages, food, pharmaceuticals and cosmetics, and its production does not use burning and pesticides.

Glucose Syrups

Food ingredient for candy and ice cream.

Lecithin, GMO

Lecithin is used as an emulsifying, wetting and dispersing agent in various products, for example: foods such as chocolate and cookies, cosmetic formulations, in pharmaceutical products and in animal feed.

Lecithin, Non GMO

Non GMO lecithin is produced from non-genetically modified soy, normally used in food applications that require non-GMO origin.

Policosanol

Polycosanols are a mixture of long-chain alcohols, commercially available in nutritional supplements. Policosanols have physiological activity benefits such as improving blood lipid levels, reducing platelet aggregation, and improving exercise performance in patients with coronary heart disease.

Refined Glycerin USP

Refined glycerin is used in:

– cosmetics, particularly in moisturizers, thanks to its moisturizing and emollient properties;
– in the food industry, as an ingredient with a preservative, sweetener or emulsifying function;
– in the pharmaceutical sector, as a vehicle for medicines administered orally and intravenously;
– tabaco leaves to keep moisture.

Refined Glycerin Technical Grade
