Surfactant and Detergent Industries
Used to produce soap products such as sodium oleate and potassium oleate; it serves as a key raw material for synthetic detergents, liquid soaps, and textile scouring agents, offering excellent detergency and emulsification capabilities.
Serves as a raw material for synthesizing Span and Tween series non-ionic surfactants, which are widely used for emulsification in sectors such as personal care products and leather processing.

 

Plastics and Rubber Industries
Used to synthesize plasticizers like butyl oleate and epoxidized oleate, enhancing the cold resistance, water resistance, and processability of plastics such as PVC.
Used to produce oleamide as a slip agent for plastics; it improves operational flow during injection and extrusion molding while imparting antistatic properties to the finished products.
Acts as an activator, plasticizer, and softener in rubber processing, optimizing rubber compounding and improving the flexibility of the finished rubber products.

 

Machinery and Metalworking Industries
Used to manufacture emulsified cutting oils and metal cleaning agents suitable for high-temperature operations like high-speed milling and grinding; it offers superior high-temperature stability compared to vegetable-derived oleic acid.
Used to prepare metal rust inhibitors and high-performance anti-wear lubricant additives, reducing wear during metal processing and extending equipment service life.
