ANIONIC ALKOXYLATE SURFACTANT

摘要

This invention relates to an anionic alkoxylate surfactant of formula (I), where R is a di- or tri-unsaturated C4-22 straight or branched hydrocarbon chain, at least two double bonds of said unsaturated chain being conjugated and exhibiting opposite geometric isomerism; m is 0 or 1; Y is O or NR'; each R' is independently selected from hydrogen, C1-6 alkyl and phenyl; n is 1 to 50; and OX is an anionic group selected from the group consisting of acids or salts of sulphate, phosphate, sulphosuccinate, succinate, carboxymethyl, maleate, carboxyethyl, alkenylsuccinate, phthalate, sulphoethyl, 3-sulpho-2-hydroxypropyl, sulphopropyl, oxalate and citrate.
