Stabilizers

Polysorbate 20 nonionic emulsifier industrial grade, also known as sorbitan monolaurate ethoxylated 20, is a nonionic surfactant of industrial grade. Slightly yellow liquid, 100% active. Functions as a solubilizer, wetting agent, and dispersant in aqueous media, stable over a wide pH range (6.0–8.0). Provides compatibility in formulations with ionic agents and improves emulsion stability. Applications: cosmetics, cleaning products, pharmaceutical formulations, among others. CAS 9005-64-5. Properties: hydroxyl number 100, max. moisture 3.0%, max. Gardner color 3.0, pH (5% solution) between 6.0 and 6.5. Store in original tightly closed container, in a cool, ventilated place, away from oxidizing agents. Available in Monterrey, with shipping throughout Mexico.

Polysorbate 60 nonionic emulsifier industrial grade, also known as sorbitan monolaurate ethoxylated 60. Slightly yellow liquid, 100% active. Nonionic surfactant based on ethoxylated sorbitan esters, soluble or dispersible in water, stable over a wide pH range (5.0–8.0). Acts as a wetting agent, dispersant, and lipophilic emulsifier, as well as a softener and solubilizer. Properties: hydroxyl number 81–96, max. acid value 2.2, max. free ethylene oxide content 10 ppm, characteristic odor, and paste presentation at 25 °C. CAS 9005-67-8. Store in original tightly closed container, in a cool, ventilated place, away from oxidizing agents. Applications: cosmetics, cleaning products, pharmaceutical formulations, among others. Available in Monterrey, with shipping throughout Mexico.

EDTA chelating agent industrial grade. Fine white powder with a minimum purity of 99%. Highly effective chelating agent that forms stable complexes with metals of octahedral coordination, acting as a hexadentate ligand. Ideal for capturing metallic ions of micronutrients such as iron, zinc, and manganese, preventing their precipitation and promoting their availability for plant absorption. Applications: agrochemicals, textile industry, and pulp/paper processes. Properties: pH 11.0–13.0 (1% solution), loss on drying 8.0–12.0%. CAS 13235-36-4. Also known as tetrasodium salt of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid dihydrate. Available in Monterrey, with shipping throughout Mexico.

Sodium gluconate, technical grade. Fine crystalline white powder, ≥ 98% purity. Highly soluble in water, non-corrosive, and non-toxic, with excellent resistance to oxidation and reduction even at high temperatures. Functions as a set retarder, plasticizer, and water reducer in cementitious systems. Applications: concrete, mortars, plasters, and other construction formulations. Properties: assay ≥ 98.0%, whiteness 55.5–85.0%, reducing substances ≤ 0.50%, chlorides ≤ 0.05%, sulfates ≤ 0.05%, heavy metals (Pb) ≤ 5.0 mg/kg, arsenic ≤ 1.0 mg/kg, pH (5% solution) 6.0–8.0, CAS 527-07-1. Also known as: sodium gluconate. Available in Monterrey, with shipping throughout Mexico.

Potassium sorbate Nantong Acetic Acid, food grade. White powder, 100% active. Fine particle size, highly water-soluble, and easy to incorporate into various formulations. Acts as an effective antimicrobial preservative against molds, yeasts, and fungi, especially in low pH products. Applications: beverages, dairy products, baked goods, dressings, jams, preserves, cosmetics, and personal care items. Properties: pH 8.0–10.5 (5% solution), active content 99.0–101.0%, CAS 24634-61-5. Also known as: potassium sorbate, sorbate of potassium, salt of sorbic acid, E202, food preservative, antifungal preservative, mold inhibitor. Certified Halal, FSSC 22000, and Kosher. Available in Monterrey, with shipping throughout Mexico.
