what is potassium oleate？
Potassium oleate is a potassium catalyst, a terpolymer catalyst for polyurethane rigid polyisocyanurate, which is widely used in polyurethane insulation sheet PIR foam systems.
Potassium oleate Usage
1. In addition, potassium oleate is widely used in the fields of rubber emulsifiers, foaming agents, release agents, detergents, lubricants, fiber softeners and surfactants.
2. Potassium oleate solution has the disadvantages of low effective content, inconvenient transportation, storage and packaging, and due to the high water content, some high concentration potassium oleate solutions often require the addition of viscosity reducers, dispersants and other additives. The application field is further restricted; the paste-like potassium oleate and the creamy potassium oleate have higher active ingredients.
3. This product is used as an emulsifier and foaming foam in the field of latex. It can also be used in creams and shampoos. It has high emulsifying efficiency, but it is easy to form calcium soap in case of hard water.
