About Fartak Lotus
Fartak Lotus Chemical Industries Co. is a manufacturer of detergents and cosmetics raw materials, headquartered in Tehran, Iran. It has been established in 2019 with the vision of becoming one of the biggest suppliers of detergents and cosmetics industry in the world. The company has started production with surfactants including Cocamidopropyl betaine (CAPB), Cocamide DEA and Soyamide DEA.
In 2022, the company has developed its production facilities by commissioning a 2.5 TPH Sulfonation plant in order to produce LABSA and SLES which are the most demanded surfactants in the market.
The factory has been built on a 30.000 sqm land in Eshtehard Industrial city and has the capacity to manufacture up to 80.000 tonnes of products through 4 different plants: 2.5 TPH Sulfonation plant, Oleochemical plant and Detergent powder plant (in construction and will be ready in 2023-Q4) and Liquid detergent plant.
Cocamidopropyl betaine (CAPB)
Cocamidopropyl Betaine, a mild amphoteric surfactant offering excellent foaming capabilities, is a mixture of closely related organic compounds derived from coconut oil and dimethylaminopropylamine. This surfactant is stable in a wide range of pH and compatible well with anionic, cationic, and nonionic surfactants. It is used in detergent and cosmetic products such as shampoo, liquid soap, and body wash. Moreover, this surfactant has been used as an antistatic factor in hair conditioners.
Sodium Lauryl Ether Sulfate (SLES)
Sodium Lauryl Ether Sulfate is an anionic surfactant which is widely used in rinse off products as a primary surfactant. This compound is prepared by ethoxylation of fatty alcohol, which is produced industrially from palm kernel oil or coconut oil. The resulting ethoxylate is converted to a half ester of sulfuric acid, which is neutralized by conversion to the sodium salt by the use of sodium hydroxide.
Pearly Sodium Lauryl Ether Sulfate
Pearly Sodium Lauryl Ether Sulfate is a mixture of sodium lauryl ether sulfate, ethylene glycol monostearate and ethylene glycol distearate as pearlising agent. This substance is used for preparation of pearly products.
Ammonium Lauryl Ether Sulfate (ALES)
Ammonium Lauryl Ether Sulfate (Ammonium Laureth Sulfate) is an anionic surfactant similar to sodium lauryl ether sulfate that has more solubility. This compound is an ammonium salt of a sulfuric ester of ethoxylated fatty alcohol. Ethoxylated fatty alcohol is produced industrially from palm kernel oil or coconut oil.
Disodium Laureth Sulfosuccinate (OMS)
Disodium Laureth Sulfosuccinate, also known as OMS, is a biodegradable surfactant and a disodium salt of an ethoxylated lauryl alcohol half ester of sulfosuccinate acid. This surfactant is a hydrotrope mild cleanser and because of its good foaming, cleaning and emulsifying capabilities it can be used in detergent and cosmetic products such as shampoo, soap, baby shampoo, cream and lotion.
Coconut Diethanolamide (Lauramide)
Cocamide Diethanolamine (DEA) is a non-ionic surfactant that is produced from coconut oil and diethanolamine. Since lauric acid is the main ingredient of coconut oil, Lauramide Diethanolamine and Cocamide Diethanolamine can be considered the same. It is a thickener and strong foam stabilizing agent and according to its good wetting and cleaning properties it can be used in different products such as shampoo, body shampoo, and liquid soap. Lauramide also can be used in hard water.
Coconut Diethanolamide 80% (Lauramide 80%)
Cocamide Diethanolamine 80% is a non-ionic surfactant that is produced from a mixed of 80% coconut oil and 20% soybean oil with diethanolamine. It is a thickener and strong foam stabilizing agent and according to its good wetting and cleaning properties it can be used in different products such as shampoo, body shampoo, and liquid soap. Lauramide also can be used in hard water.
Alkyl betaine
Alkyl Betaine is a surfactant produced by the reaction of tertiary (3°) alkylamine with chloroacetic acid. This surfactant can be considered as a derivative of N-tri-alkyl amino acids (N-tri-alkyl glycine). Alkyl betaine is usually made from alkyl with a chain length of 12 or 14 carbons (lauryl myristyl betaine). Alkyl betaine can be anionic or cationic, depending on the pH. This surfactant is compatible with anionic, cationic and non-ionic surfactants and is used as an emollient, antistatic, detergent and moisturizer.
Cocamidopropylamine Oxide
Cocamidopropylamine Oxide is a zwitterionic surfactant that has a pleasant compatibility with anionic and non-ionic surfactants. These surfactants have good cleansing, antistatic electricity, and anti-bacterial properties. Cocamidopropylamine oxide is used in shampoos, shower gels, children’s body cleansers, and products for sensitive skin.
Alkylamine Oxide
Alkylamine oxide (Luaryl Dimethylamine Oxide & Myristyl Dimethylamine Oxide) is a zwitterionic surfactant produced by the reaction of tertiary (3) alkylamin and hydrogen peroxide. Besides this function, alkyl amine oxides also have antibacterial properties.
Esterquat
Bis (Acyloxyethyl) Hydroxy Ethyl Methyl Ammonium Methosulfate
Esterquat is a cationic surfactant that is formed by the reaction between methyl esters of fatty acids with an alkanol amin (tri-ethanol amine) and then converted into quaternary ammonium dimethyl sulfate.
Ethylene Glycol Distearate (EGDS)
Ethylene Glycol Distearate is diester of ethylene glycol and stearic acid. It is used as pearlising agent in preparation of detergents. Pearlising power of this substance is more than ethylene glycol monostearate.
Ethylene Glycol Monostearate (EGMS)
Ethylene Glycol Monostearate is monoester of ethylene glycol and stearic acid. It is used as pearlising agent in preparation of detergent products.
Linear Alkylbenzene Sulfonic Acid (LABSA)
Linear Alkylbenzene Sulfonic Acid is an anionic and useful surfactant in preparation of different detergents. This substance is produced by sulfonation of linear alkyl benzene.
Soya Diethanolamide (Soyamide)
Soyamide Diethanolamine is a non-ionic surfactant that is produced from soybean oil and diethanolamine. It is a thickener and strong foam stabilizing agent and according to its good wetting and cleaning properties it can be used in different products such as shampoo, body shampoo, and liquid soap. Soyamide also can be used in hard water.
