Our Sonneborn branded products vary widely in specifications and key attributes. For the metal-working industry, metal-working fluids are key to lubricate machinery during the cutting process and prevent rust/corrosion of the equipment.
Our Sodium Sulfonates, Petronates™, are from natural origin and contain a broader distribution of equivalent weights than synthetic alternatives. This enhances the ability of sulfonates to interact with oil and provide excellent emulsification. Our Petronate-products have superior compatibility with the base oil, resulting in excellent emulsion performance and better resistance to rust and corrosion.
Depending on your application, we could advise what balance of either perfect emulsification or rust prevention would best fit to provide you with the best performance. For metal working applications, Petronate HL would be the preferred choice for a successful formulation.
If you are a formulator or producer of industrial oils, where rust prevention is a larger concern, we strongly recommend our Petronate H or Petronate HH products.
If you are a blender or package producer for ore-flotation applications in mining, for example phosphate for extraction, our Petronates act as collector that is added to coat the surface of minerals, making them to attach to air bubbles and float to the surface.
Sonneborn offers 5 grades of Petronates, varying in equivalent weight. When you look for a tailored solution, don’t hesitate to reach out to us directly.
