Builders are water-softening chemicals added to detergents and cleaning products to enhance their effectiveness. They work by neutralizing mineral ions (like calcium and magnesium) in hard water that interfere with cleaning. Common builders include phosphates , zeolites, sodium carbonate (washing soda), and citrates. By preventing soap scum and improving surfactant performance, builders help detergents remove stains more efficiently while reducing residue on fabrics and surfaces.Builders play a crucial but often overlooked role in laundry detergents, dishwashing products, and industrial cleaners.
Detergent Compound
Detergent Compound is a formulated blend of surfactants, builders, fillers, enzymes, and other additives designed to provide superior cleaning performance in various household, institutional, and industrial cleaning applications. Supplied as a free-flowing powder or granules, it dissolves quickly in water to effectively remove dirt, oils, grease, and stains from fabrics, dishes, and surfaces. The compound balances cleaning power, foaming, water softening, and fabric care through a combination of synthetic surfactants (anionic, nonionic), builders (such as sodium carbonate, zeolites), enzymes for stain degradation, optical brighteners, anti-redeposition agents, and fragrance. This versatile base material is essential for laundry detergents, dishwashing powders, and multipurpose cleaning formulations.
Diethanolamine
Diethanolamine is a colorless to pale yellow, viscous liquid with a mild ammonia-like odor. It is a secondary amine and diol, widely used in various industrial, pharmaceutical, and cosmetic applications. DEA is highly soluble in water and many organic solvents. It acts as an intermediate in the synthesis of surfactants, emulsifiers, corrosion inhibitors, and pharmaceuticals. It is valued for its alkalinity, emulsifying properties, and ability to form stable complexes with fatty acids.
Disodium EDTA
Disodium EDTA (Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid disodium salt) is a white, odorless, crystalline powder known for its strong chelating properties. With a purity of 99%, it is widely used across numerous industries to bind metal ions, improve stability, and enhance performance in formulations. Disodium EDTA is highly soluble in water, slightly acidic to neutral in solution, and stable under standard storage conditions. Its ability to sequester metal ions like calcium, magnesium, and iron makes it a critical additive in food, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, water treatment, and industrial applications.
EDTA Tetrasodium Salt
EDTA Tetrasodium Salt (Ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid tetrasodium salt) is a highly water-soluble chelating agent widely used to bind and sequester metal ions such as calcium, magnesium, iron, and heavy metals. It is the fully neutralized, alkaline form of EDTA, typically supplied as a white granular or powder form. This salt exhibits excellent chelating efficiency at neutral to alkaline pH levels, making it a critical additive in numerous industrial, pharmaceutical, cosmetic, agricultural, and water treatment applications. Its ability to prevent metal-induced degradation and enhance formulation stability makes it invaluable in many sectors.
Magadi Soda Ash
Magadi Soda Ash, commonly known as Soda Ash or Sodium Carbonate (Na₂CO₃), is a white, odorless, granular or powdery alkaline compound. It is widely used in various industrial and manufacturing processes due to its strong alkaline properties and high solubility in water. Magadi Soda serves as a key raw material in glass manufacturing, detergent production, water treatment, and chemical synthesis. It is available in bulk packaging, such as 50kg bags, for easy handling and transport.
Mono Ethanol Amine
Mono Ethanol Amine (MEA) is a clear, colorless, hygroscopic liquid with an ammonia-like odor. It is an organic chemical compound combining both amine and alcohol functional groups. MEA is widely used as a versatile chemical intermediate and is especially important in gas treatment, detergents, and chemical manufacturing due to its alkalinity and solubility in water and organic solvents.
