1. Basic Information and Core Positioning
- Product Name: GERONOL VO/05
- Product Category: Non-alkylphenol methyl ester oil-specific emulsifier
- Core Positioning: A high-efficiency methyl ester oil emulsifier free of alkylphenol structures, designed for scenarios with strict environmental requirements. By optimizing interfacial activity and molecular compatibility, it enables stable dispersion of methyl ester oils in aqueous phases, compatible with various emulsion systems using methyl ester oil as the oil phase (e.g., export-oriented pesticide formulations, high-end industrial emulsions). With EPA and REACH registrations, it meets stringent environmental and regulatory standards in regions like Europe and the U.S., making it a preferred solution in green chemical applications.
2. Key Performance and Technical Features
- Non-alkylphenol structure with superior environmental friendliness: Free of restricted components such as alkylphenols (AP) and alkylphenol ethoxylates (APEO), with a biodegradation rate of ≥90% (compliant with OECD 301 standards). It avoids the ecological toxicity issues of traditional alkylphenol-based emulsifiers, aligning with global green chemical trends—especially suitable for products exported to European and U.S. markets.
- High-efficiency emulsification for methyl ester oils: Its molecular structure contains ester groups (affinity for methyl ester oils such as C8–C20 fatty acid methyl esters) and hydrophilic segments, rapidly reducing interfacial tension (to 10–16 mN/m). It disperses methyl ester oils into uniform droplets (0.8–3μm) to form stable oil-in-water (O/W) emulsions, inhibiting droplet coalescence or stratification.
- Broad compatibility and stability: Compatible with methyl ester oils of varying carbon chain lengths and viscosities, as well as multiple pesticide active ingredients (e.g., pyrethroids, amides) and additives (antifreeze agents, thickeners). The emulsion withstands temperature fluctuations (-15℃ to 50℃), over 100-fold water dilution, and high-frequency shear, with a storage stability of over 24 months.
- Balanced low dosage and high efficiency: The recommended dosage is 3%–7% (based on methyl ester oil mass) or 1%–3% (based on total system mass), 30%–40% lower than traditional non-eco-friendly emulsifiers. This reduces formulation costs while avoiding issues like foam or efficacy interference caused by excessive addition.
3. Main Application Fields
- Export-oriented pesticide formulations: Core application in methyl ester oil-based pesticide formulations requiring EPA and REACH compliance, such as eco-friendly emulsions in water (EW), microemulsions (ME), and suspo-emulsions (SE). It replaces APEO-containing traditional emulsifiers, facilitating smooth market access in Europe and the U.S.
- High-end industrial emulsions: Used as a core emulsifying component in food-contact metalworking fluids (methyl ester oil-based cutting fluids), low-VOC water-based coatings (methyl ester oil-modified emulsions), and eco-friendly cleaning agents, balancing emulsification performance with environmental compliance.
4. Usage and Storage Specifications
- Recommended Dosage: 3%–7% based on methyl ester oil mass, or 1%–3% based on total system mass. Adjust according to methyl ester oil type and formulation; small-scale trials are recommended to determine the optimal ratio (higher dosages may be needed for high-viscosity methyl ester oils).
- Usage Method: Suggested to be pre-mixed with methyl ester oil, then slowly added to the aqueous phase under medium-to-high shear (rotational speed ≥3000 rpm) and dispersed for 10–15 minutes. It can be compounded with other eco-friendly additives to further optimize system performance.
- Packaging Specifications: Available in eco-friendly packaging, such as 25kg food-grade plastic buckets and 200kg iron drums with anti-corrosion liners, featuring excellent sealing and compliance with international transportation standards.
- Storage Conditions: Store in a sealed, cool, and dry environment (5–35℃). Avoid freezing at low temperatures, exposure to high-temperature sunlight, and contact with strong acids or alkalis. The shelf life is 24 months in an unopened state.
