Polymer Emulsion Chemicals

Potassium persulfate is the inorganic compound with the formula K₂S₂O₈. Also known as potassium peroxydisulfate or KPS, it is a white solid that is sparingly soluble in cold water, but dissolves better in warm water. This salt is a powerful oxidant, commonly used to initiate polymerizations.

his salt is used to initiate polymerization of various alkenes leading to commercially important polymers such as styrene-butadiene rubber and polytetrafluoroethylene and related materials. In solution, the dianion dissociates to give radicals:^[3]

[O₃SO-OSO₃]²⁻  2 [SO₄]^•−

It is used in organic chemistry as an oxidizing agent,^[4] for instance in the Elbs persulfate oxidation of phenols and the Boyland–Sims oxidation of anilines.

As a strong yet stable bleaching agent it also finds use in various hair bleaches and lighteners. Such brief and non-continuous use is normally hazard free, however prolonged contact can cause skin irritation.^[5] It has been used as an improving agent for flour with the E number E922, although it is no longer approved for this use within the EU.

CO-40, approximately 75% of the components of the mixture are hydrophobic. These comprise mainly fatty acid esters of glycerol polyethylene glycol and fatty acid esters of polyethylene glycol. The hydrophilic portion consists of polyethylene glycols and glycerol ethoxylates.

Nonionic. Nonionic surfactants have covalently bonded oxygen-containing hydrophilic groups, which are bonded to hydrophobic parent structures. ... Nonionic surfactants are less sensitive to water hardness than anionic surfactants, and they foam less strongly.
A wetting agent facilitates the uptake of water during initial wetting and optimises the movement of water in the substrate which improves the re-wetting of over-dry plants. This is due to the wetting agent's ability in lowering the surface tension of water which allows it to spread more easily and evenly in the peat
