Quick Links

Lansurf CDE is an amide‑based surfactant used as a secondary surfactant and performance additive in a wide range of industrial and formulated products. It functions primarily to enhance foam characteristics, improve formulation stability, and support viscosity development in aqueous systems.

​

The product is typically used to complement primary surfactants, contributing to richer, more stable foam and improved overall formulation aesthetics. Lansurf CDE can also assist in improving mildness and consistency in finished formulations, making it suitable for use across a broad spectrum of cleaning and industrial applications.

​

Key Features

​

  • Foam boosting and stabilisation - Enhances foam volume and foam stability when used alongside primary surfactants in aqueous formulations.

  • Viscosity enhancement - Contributes to viscosity development, helping improve body and consistency in liquid formulations.

  • Secondary surfactant performance - Used as a co‑surfactant to support formulation stability and overall performance across a range of industrial and cleaning applications.

​

Applications

​​

Detergents and Liquid Cleaning Formulations
- Lansurf CDE is widely used as a secondary surfactant in liquid detergent systems. It enhances foam volume and foam stability while contributing to viscosity development, helping achieve the desired formulation body and performance profile.

​

Industrial and Institutional Cleaners
- Suitable for use in industrial and institutional cleaning products where robust foam performance and formulation stability are required. Lansurf CDE supports consistent application characteristics across a range of hard‑surface cleaning products.

​

Household Cleaning Products
