Boost your performance with Clariant

Muttenz, 6 June 2011 – Clariant invites CESIO 2011 visitors to embrace its innovative, efficacy-enhancing and sustainability-focused ingredients to boost the performance of laundry & dishwashing detergents, hard surface cleaners, and household and I&I cleaning formulations.

At Booth 32, the specialty chemicals expert will present the latest in highly-efficient, and cost-effective surfactants designed to add value exactly where customers need it.

Clariant’s wide range of products offers such benefits as biodegradability, skin mildness, eco-label compatibility, high efficacy, excellent foaming and viscosity, and energy savings.

From bleach activators, surfactants, builders, and performance polymers, to next generation of amine oxide, innovation highlights on-show at CESIO 2011 include:

 Peractive®: the clean and clever way of bleaching. Highly efficient, offering energy and cost savings, it delivers a hygienically clean wash that is gentle on colors and fibers. Peractive is aerobically and anaerobically biodegradable according to OECD 301 and 311 test methods.

 Hostapur® SAS: a traditional specialty for innovative cleaners, it is highly efficient in laundry, dishwashing and hard surface cleaning. With very good solubility and solubilization it is ideal for highly-concentrated formulations. Saves on solvents and hydrotropes, and has improved compatibility with enzymes and performance additives.

 SKS®-6: the water soluble, multifunctional performance builder for a bright future. Ideal for modern concentrated formulations, powders and tablets, the builder has a high calcium and very high magnesium binding capacity. High surfactant absorption capability and improved bleach compatibility add to its benefits.

 TexCare® SRN: the highly-compatible, multi-functional talent for detergents with broad stain protection and removal. The mild-to-skin, novel viscosity modifier has an excellent toxicological and ecological profile, and is compliant with eco-label requirements such as EU-flower.

 Praepagen® HY: promotes sustainability through efficiency enhancement. The performance booster generates strong synergism, enabling cost reduction through high efficacy and stability. Praepagen HY improves viscosity and formulation ease.

 Genaminox® CHE: the high active, next generation amine oxide is a sustainable, cleaning & performance-boosting solution for hard surfaces with strong emulsification power and excellent foaming properties offering outstanding performance and cost efficacy.

Carsten Cohrs and Oliver Kaumanns from Clariant will present the technical paper - Hard surface cleaning: New Polymers for “Next Time Cleaning Benefit” - at the CESIO 2011 Congress on June 7, 2011 at 8:30-9:00 a.m. in Room E2. Dr. Kaumanns’ second presentation - Diethoxycocoylamine Oxide: An Amine Oxide with Improved Degreasing Properties – will be held at 12:30pm that same day.
