Kao Corporation SA is a Japanese company with more than a century of

experience in the cosmetics and detergents market, having nowadays more

than 30 affiliates worldwide.

Kao has been present in the surfactants market in Europe for more than 35

years now. In the year 2000, at the gateway of the new millennium, Kao’s

Chemical Division united their European production centres in a new head

office, Kao Chemicals Europe, in Barcelona, Spain.

Kao Chemicals Europe has been created to unite the efforts of the different

centres, in order to gain efficiency and strength in a market that is becoming

more and more demanding and competitive.

With years of experience and the most advanced technology, Kao produces

and commercialises in Europe more than 400 different surfactants, which can

be applied in many different fields.

In the development and design stage, as well as in the manufacturing process of

these surfactants, Kao is committed to health, safety and the environment. In its

corporate activities Kao continuously improves and implements measures that

minimise the impact on the environment and ensure the safety and the health of

its employees and the community. Kao is committed to “Responsible Care”.

The aim of this review is to describe the most relevant families of surfactants

commercialised by Kao Chemicals Europe, and to point out the benefits and

advantages of each one considering their properties and final applications.

See below an overview of the interconnecting process steps that Kao uses to

produce these surfactants.

I n t r o d u c t i o n

Anionic surfactants can be considered as the most used s urfactants

in the detergents market world-wide, together with non-ionic

surfactants, due to their relatively high effectiveness-cost ratio.

This type of surfactants are commonly used as the main component

in a detergent formula, due to their unbeatable properties as

foaming and emulsifying agents.

In Germany and in Spain, Kao produces different types of sulfated

and sulfonated derivatives.

Among the range of sulfated products, the most relevant isEMAL® 270D, which achieves the highest standards of quality,

due to the combination of natural raw materials, technology and

the experience conferred by more than 30 years constant

improvement in production of thousands of tons.

The application properties of anionic surfactants are well known,

as well as their role in the detergents were they are used.

One of the disadvantages of anionic surfactants in detergents is their skin irritation potential. In the graph,

(next page) skin irritation differences between them are shown, using an “in vitro” test, the Zein Test.

When comparing sulfat ed derivatives, EMAL® 270D, ethoxylated with 2 moles EO, is less irritant than its non-

ethoxylated homologous, EMAL ® 30E.

ALFANOX® 46 (AOS) is a milder alternative to linear alkyl benzensulfonic acid (SULFONAX® ), having the

advantages of being a liquid surfactant, already neutralised. This facilitates the formulating process of the

final detergent.

A different type of anionic surfactants are the ether

carboxylic derivatives. AKYPO® is the trademark

used to denominate the alkyl ether carboxylic acids

and their salts.

The products included in the range differ from eachother in the degree of ethoxylation and in the alkyl

chain length. The application properties of each

depend on these two parameters.

AKYPO® LF types are products with a short alkyl

chain that can be used, singly or in combination, as

low-foaming surfactants.

Besides the AKYPO® LF types, there are in our range other ether carboxylic derivatives with

longer alkyl chain, from natural sources, which are characterised by their mildness, and their

foaming and solubilizing benefits. These are the AKYPO® RLM types which are commercialised

in concentrated acid form.

AKYPO®

SOFT is the trademark used for the neutralised form of these surfactants. Theabbreviati on “NV” at the end indicates a sodium salt, while the abbreviation “BVC” indicates

a high concentrated product. The AKYPO® SOFT types improve the foam quality of the

detergent reducing the irritation level of the formula, therefore they are used as co-surfactants

in detergents which have to be in contact with the skin.

Non-ionic surfactants have been used by the detergent industry

for many years and for many different applications. Among the

different type of non-ionic surfactants, Kao Chemicals Europe

produces a very special group named LEVENOL ®. Chemically,

LEVENOL® is a Glycerine Polyoxyethylene Ester. The different

degrees of ethoxylation and esterification provide a wide range

of products with many different application properties

regarding appearance, foaming ability, thickening ability,

solubilization and emulsifying capability and conditioning or

moisturising effect.

The LEVENOL® range is characterised by its ecological and

toxicological advantages when compared with other non-ionic

surfactants. The surfactants included in the LEVENOL® range

don’t need any sentence of risk and safety, and any warnings

on its label, even at 100% concentration. This fact makes them

very suitable for environmentally friendly detergents, which

therefore can achieve better classification according to the

European Dir ective of Preparations (1999/45/EC).

LEVENOL® products are also included in the positive list of Bra

Miljöval (good environmental choice) in the Nordic countries.

Among all the surfactants included in the LEVENOL® range,

LEVENOL® C-421 is the best foam stabilizer and viscosity

enhancing, while LEVENOL® C-201 can be considered as a

medium to low foaming surfactant with even negative influenceon the viscosity in the presence of SLES. However, LEVENOL®C-201

presents very good oil solubilizing properties, which makes it

suitable and very effective in liquid or powder detergents for

fabric wash in automatic machines.

The Kao’s trademark for alkanolamides and their

derivatives is AMIDET®.

In the detergents market, alkanolamides are well

known for their ability to greatly enhance the

viscosity of aqueous sodium alkyl sulfate and alkylether sulfate solutions.

Alkanolamides are also characterized by their

excellent foam stabilizing properties. The foam-

ability of alkyl ether sulfates in the presence of soil,

is substantially improved after addition of low

amounts of fatty acid alkanolamides.

Cocamide DEA (AMIDET® B-112/ AMIDET® KDE ) has

been the most used alkanolamide for years, as viscosity

enhancing agent and foam stabilizer, due to its liquid

appearance and its effectiveness. But the use of

Cocamide DEA has decreased since the moment when

the potential risk of carcinogenic nitrosamines

formation in diethanolamine derivatives appeared on

the market.

Monoethanolamides don’t have this nitrosamines

formation risk. In the Kao’s surfactants range, there are

different types of ethoxylated monoethanolamides,

based on different alkyl chain and ethoxylation degree.

degreasing cleaners, in combination with fatty

alcohol ethoxylated surfactants or alone.

Besides AMIDET® A/18 and AMIDET® A/26 mainly

used in hard surface cleaners, Kao is proud to produce

a very “unique” surfactant, AMIDET® N.

AMIDET® N is based on rapeseed oil, a vegetable oil

with high content of C18 unsaturated fatty acid.

AMIDET® N is a high concentrated liquid product,

which has very good solubilizing and emulsifying

properties. Compared to Cocamide DEA it is a better

thickener. Its stronger surfactant character, due to

ethoxylation, makes it a better foaming agent than

Cocamide DEA.

F I N D E T ® Ethoxylated derivatives

Under the trademark of FINDET ®, Kao Chemicals Europe

produces a wide range of non-ionic surfactants, all of them

obtained by ethoxylation and/or propoxylation of different

fatty alcohols and fatty acids.

Ethoxylated derivatives are widely used in the detergents field

for many different applications. Their properties differ in

accordance to the alkyl chain length, the unsaturated degree,

the percentage of lineal or branched chain, and also the

ethoxylation degree.

FINDET® LR4/2585, due to its solubility, cloud point ( 65ºC at

1% in water) and wetting properties, is one of the best

candidates to replace nonoxynol-9 (nonylphenol-9EO) in hard

surface cleaners, like floor cleaners.

O X I D E T ® Ami ne Oxi des

The Kao’s trademark for Amine Oxides is OXIDET® . Amine

oxides have been well-known to surfactant chemists for decades.

These surfactants are characterised by their versatility.

Amine oxides are obtained by a reaction of a tertiary amine with

hydrogen peroxide. The semi-polar bond between the nitrogen

and the oxygen is responsible for much of the uniqueness and

functionality of amine oxides.

Amine oxides are non-ionic, but when the pH is lowered, the

semi-polar linkage becomes stronger and the molecule assumes

a weak positive charge, becoming a cationic surfactant with

conditioning properties. As the alkyl chain length is increased,

these surfactants act more like oil-in-water emulsifiers. This is

another characteristic property of amine oxides.

of the bleach, OXIDET® DM-4 (C14) being a better thickener than

the coconut type. The choice about the most suitable one depends

on the sodium hypochlorite concentration in the final bleach.

Among the range of polyethoxylated surfactants, FINDET® 10/18 is one of

the most humectant agents, with very simi lar results to nonoxynol-9 according

to the Draves test.

FINDET® ARH/52 is recommended for solubilizing hydrophobic additives like

fragrances or special extracts.

Propoxylated derivatives are commonly recommended for low foaming

products. This is the case of DANOX ® LF-102, which is used for rinse aids in

dishwashing machines.

Cocamidopropyl Amine Oxide, OXIDET® L-75, can

not be used for this application due to the bad

stability of hypochlorite in the presence of the amide

group. The main application of OXIDET® L-75 is as

co-surfactant in foaming detergents, like washing-up

liquids. Compared to typical surfactants used indetergents like CAPB or Cocamide DEA, OXIDET® L-75

provides higher foam and lower interfacial tension,

both factors improving the final efficacy of the

detergent.

Kao Chemicals Europe is one of the biggest producers of

cationic surfactants world-wide.

TETRANYL® is the registered trademark for a group of these

cationic surfactants, characterised by their unique ecological

profile. These surfactants and commonly known in the market

as TEA-Esterquats and are mainly used in the production of

domestic softeners.

Kao Chemicals Europe has two different production plants for

these products in Spain, both located near Barcelona and fromthere exports to more than 30 countries.

The fats and oils used to produce these products can be both,

animal or vegetable origin. The length of the alkyl chains

composing the original fats and their degree of non-saturated

chains, together with the esterification degree are the

parameters influencing the final softening performance as well

as the final characteristics of the softener.

TEA Esterquats

Among the wide range of surfactants included in the TETRANYL ® range, the most

used are those included in the table:

Almost since their introduction on the market, amphoteric surfactants have relied on

personal care products. In recent years has their use extended into household cleaning

applications, such as hand dishwashing liquids and clothes washing detergents.

It is well known that, betaines show in general good pH stability, are hard water tolerant,

are effective as detergents, increase the viscosity when combined with anionic

surfactants, and act as foam boosters, etc.

Kao’s trademark for this group of surfactants is BETADET® .

Cocamidopropyl betaine (CAPB), is by far the most used betaine, not only due to the

lowest cost but also to its effectiveness.

There are two different qualities of cocamidopropyl betaines on the market. The most

typical which is at around 35% of dry matter and a higher concentrated one with 50%

dry matter approximately. Both products contain between 5 and 7% of sodium chloride

as a secondary product. Kao produces both, BETADET ® HR and BETADET® HR-50K

respectively.

Besides the CAPB and among the range, Lauryl Hydroxysultaine, Kao’s trademark

BETADET® S-20, must be pointed out. This surfactant presents many advantageous

properties when compared to standard CABP. Those are : pH and low temperature

stability, foam quality, hard water tolerance and also skin mildness. It is recommended

for high alkaline degreasers like oven cleaners or detergents for industrial kitchens.

T E T R A N Y L ®

Application and performing differences between these three products are not

relevant, nevertheless TETRANYL® L1/90 S is recommended for high concentrated

softeners due to its lower viscosity influence in the final formula. Concentrated

softeners are usually less viscous than regular types, to assure a good and quick

dispersion in the washing machine. TETRANYL ® L6/90 is the vegetable origin

version of TETRANYL® L1/90 S. On the contrary, TETRANYL® AT-7590 is advised

for regular or diluted softeners, due to its enhancing viscosity effect. The three

products contain around 10% isopropyl alcohol as a solvent.

Betaines

In Kao’s range of products produced in Europe, there are also some “almost-

ready” concentrated mixtures of surfactants and additives, designed and

optimised for many different applications, such as: washing-up liquids, all

purpose cleaners, floor and wood polishing agents, etc.

The trademark of Kao for this type of blends is DANOX ® , however also the name

AKYPO® GENE is used for some specialities produced in Germany.

The dilution in water of these products and the addition of the specific additives

in each case together with fragrance, preservative and dyes, allows a very simple

preparation of final detergents.

Benzalkonium Chloride is a very well known disinfecting agent, used

mainly in hard surface cleaners but it can be also recommended for

swimming-pool application, as an algaecide.

QUARTAMIN® 60W25 and QUARTAMIN® THV are monoalkyl quats and

therefore they are less performing as softeners than dialkyl quats.

Nevertheless, both surfactants can be used in other applications like in

acidic cleaners or in hydrogen peroxide-based cleaners.

Pearling agents are specially designed blends used to modify the final appearance

of the surfactant clear solutions. Their final composition is usually a result of a

long R&D investigation and optimisation of the crystallisation process.

These products are usually added to the surfactant solution at the end of the

production process and at room temperature. Their common use percentage is

between 2 and 10%. Its use avoids the heating-up of the total solution and the

controlled crystallisation process. They save time and energy.

DANOX® P-15 is a very effective pearling additive, which can be used at very

low percentages.

DANOX® PL-10 is a new pearling agent developed in accordance to the new

market trends, which are to be exempt of any alkanolamide, to be high

concentrated, very mild and preservative free.

The tendency to a partial reduction, or in some cases, total elimination of

phosphates in detergents, due to eutrofication problems, has led to reduced

efficiency, such as: decrease in detergency, increase in re-deposition, reduction

in dispersion power and increase in incrustations.

The acrylic polymers and acrylic-maleate copolymers are the best solutions for

avoiding this type of deficiency, especially in phosphate-free detergents, which

cause incrustation problems of inorganic and organic origin.

In addition, due to the stability of CELLESH® in acidic and alkaline mediums,

its use may be recommended in different types of all purpose detergents, machine

dishwashing products, etc. Its use in these detergents assures cleaning power,

increases the dispersion of insoluble particles and avoids the precipitation of

salts (spotting).
