1. Basic Information and Core Positioning
- Product Name: GERONOL VO/01
- Product Category: Vegetable oil-specific emulsifier
- Core Positioning: A high-efficiency emulsifier specifically designed for vegetable oils. By precisely regulating oil-water interface performance, it enables stable dispersion of vegetable oils in aqueous phases, compatible with various emulsion systems using vegetable oil as the oil phase (e.g., pesticide emulsions in water, eco-friendly emulsifiable concentrates, fine chemical emulsions). The two red asterisks highlight its outstanding performance advantages in vegetable oil emulsification.
2. Key Performance and Technical Features
- Targeted Emulsification for Vegetable Oils: Its molecular structure contains long-chain alkyl groups (highly compatible with vegetable oils such as rapeseed oil, soybean oil, and palm oil) and hydrophilic groups. It rapidly reduces the interfacial tension between vegetable oils and water (to 15–20 mN/m), dispersing vegetable oils into fine droplets (1–3μm) to form stable oil-in-water (O/W) or water-in-oil (W/O) emulsions (adjustable by formulation), inhibiting droplet coalescence.
- Broad Compatibility with Vegetable Oils: Compatible with various common vegetable oil types, including drying oils (e.g., linseed oil), semi-drying oils (e.g., cottonseed oil), and non-drying oils (e.g., olive oil). It solves the "difficult emulsification" issue of traditional emulsifiers for specific vegetable oils.
- Excellent System Stability: Forms a robust interfacial film in vegetable oil-based emulsions, enhancing resistance to temperature fluctuations (-5℃ to 50℃), shear, and dilution. It effectively prevents stratification, demulsification, or gelling during storage, extending product shelf life (typically ≥24 months).
- High Efficiency at Low Dosage: A dosage of 5%–10% (based on vegetable oil mass) or 2%–5% (based on total system mass) achieves stable emulsification, reducing usage by 20%–30% compared to general-purpose emulsifiers. This lowers formulation costs while avoiding foam or efficacy interference caused by excessive addition.
3. Main Application Fields
- Vegetable Oil-Based Pesticide Formulations: Core application in pesticide formulations using vegetable oil as a carrier, such as vegetable oil-based emulsions in water (EW), microemulsions (ME), and oil dispersions (OD). For example, it emulsifies mixtures of vegetable oils with insecticides or fungicides, improving 药液 adhesion and permeability while meeting environmental requirements (replacing traditional organic solvents).
- Fine Chemical Emulsions: Used as a core emulsifying component in cosmetics (e.g., vegetable oil-based emulsion creams), water-based coatings (vegetable oil-modified emulsions), and metalworking fluids (vegetable oil-based cutting fluids), ensuring uniform dispersion and long-term stability of vegetable oils in aqueous phases.
4. Usage and Storage Specifications
- Recommended Dosage: 5%–10% based on vegetable oil mass, or 2%–5% based on total system mass. Adjust according to vegetable oil type and emulsion form (O/W or W/O). Small-scale trials are recommended to determine the optimal ratio (higher dosages may be needed for high-viscosity vegetable oils).
- Usage Method: Suggested to be pre-mixed with vegetable oil during the emulsification stage, then slowly added to the aqueous phase. Disperse for 10–20 minutes using high-shear emulsification equipment (rotational speed ≥3000 rpm). It can be compounded with thickeners or antifreeze agents to enhance overall system performance.
- Packaging Specifications: Available in industrial standard packaging, such as 25kg plastic buckets and 200kg closed iron drums, with excellent sealing for easy storage and transportation.
- Storage Conditions: Store in a sealed, cool, and dry environment (10–30℃). Avoid freezing at low temperatures, exposure to high-temperature sunlight, and contact with strong acids or alkalis. The shelf life is generally 24 months in an unopened state.
