Sodium Methylnaphthalenesulfonate Supplier | CAS 26264-58-4
Sodium Methylnaphthalenesulfonate for Industrial Formulations
Sodium methylnaphthalenesulfonate (CAS 26264-58-4) is an anionic aromatic sulfonate used in industrial formulations as a wetting, dispersing and hydrotropic aid. It is relevant to aqueous systems in which pigments, mineral solids or other components must disperse consistently during processing and dilution. Industrial procurement enquiries usually start with the formulation type, required material identity and preferred commercial form.
Unilong handles enquiries for this chemical from agrochemical ingredient purchasers, industrial coatings and ink producers, auxiliary manufacturers and chemical distributors. Powder is a documented commercial form in the market; 25 kg/bag is a reference packing format rather than a confirmed Unilong shipment specification. State the destination and expected purchasing volume so that the offered grade, pack and terms can be matched to the order.
Product Identification and Sourcing Information
The name sodium methyl naphthalene sulfonate is also used for sodium methylnaphthalenesulfonate. Because closely named naphthalene sulfonate dispersants are sold under different chemical identities, the CAS number should appear on the purchasing enquiry and commercial documentation. A requested industrial grade cannot be defined reliably by the generic term “dispersant” alone.

Commercial materials may contain more than one substituted naphthalene sulfonate or positional isomer. Matching an existing material therefore involves the current supplier grade or specification as well as CAS 26264-58-4. Do not assume interchangeability with sodium naphthalene sulfonate formaldehyde condensates or other methyl-naphthalene derivatives.
Industrial Applications
Selection should follow the finished formulation, not the broad chemical category alone. The five application groups below represent documented industrial directions for this anionic surfactant; they are not assurances of compatibility with every formulation or any end-use registration.
Agrochemical Wettable Powders and Granules
This surfactant is a relevant formulation component for crop-protection products that need adequate powder wetting and redistribution of solids in water. For wettable powders (WP) and water-dispersible granules (WDG), the requirement may concern the time taken to wet, the dispersion after dilution or suspension behavior in the planned water system. Procurement teams can identify the formulation format and the existing auxiliary package when discussing an appropriate grade.
Water-Based Paints and Coatings
Pigments and mineral fillers in aqueous paints require wetting and dispersion as the coating is manufactured. Sodium methylnaphthalenesulfonate may be considered as a supporting anionic surfactant where pigment distribution and handling of the dispersion are relevant. The choice must be compatible with the binder, pigment package and other additives, so the buyer should provide the type of coating and existing dispersant specification.
Printing Inks and Emulsion Systems
Industrial printing inks use dispersants and wetting agents to introduce colorants into a liquid vehicle. Sodium methylnaphthalenesulfonate has documented use in ink-related applications and can also serve a role in certain emulsion-polymerization systems. These are different supply situations: an ink formulator may prioritize pigment handling, while an emulsion producer may focus on surfactant compatibility with a specific process.
Textile and Leather Auxiliary Formulations
Aqueous textile and leather processing baths rely on auxiliary surfactants for penetration and contact with treated substrates. Methylnaphthalenesulfonate-based ingredients are used in some industrial wetting and processing formulations where an anionic component fits the formulation. Purchasers should specify whether the material is intended for an auxiliary concentrate, processing liquor or a mixed surfactant package, rather than requesting a generic detergent grade.
Industrial Cleaning and Hydrotropic Systems
In selected aqueous industrial cleaning products, a hydrotropic ingredient supports the overall formulation by helping a blend remain workable when other ingredients have differing solubility characteristics. Sodium methylnaphthalenesulfonate is a recognized hydrotropic and wetting ingredient, but it is not itself a universal cleaning system. For sourcing, identify the cleaning formulation type, ionic surfactant combination and intended commercial form before establishing grade compatibility.

Grade Selection for Industrial Procurement
For a new formulation, sourcing priorities include material identity, expected physical form, handling characteristics and how the grade fits the existing surfactant package. For a replacement purchase, provide the current technical specification or known commercial grade. This helps avoid an offer that matches the broad chemical family but not the material used at the plant.
Typical commercial specification fields for discussion include appearance, the relevant active-matter or assay basis, moisture, inorganic salt content and characteristics of aqueous solutions. The useful limits depend on the actual supplier grade and application; no numerical limits are represented here as Unilong product specifications. Where process performance is important, the supplied material should be assessed against the manufacturer’s production requirements.
Quality Control and Documentation
Consistent industrial purchasing depends on receiving the intended material with identifiable documentation. For sodium methylnaphthalenesulfonate, the central quality question is whether the offered commercial grade matches the buyer’s declared specification and application. A generic purity claim or an unrelated naphthalene-sulfonate data sheet does not establish equivalence.
Unilong can receive grade-specific document requests alongside the quotation enquiry. Specify whether your purchasing procedure needs a technical data sheet, safety data sheet or batch certificate of analysis, and identify any additional test items already included in your approval specification. Document availability and exact test methods must be checked against the particular offered grade; this page does not claim that a document has been issued for stock that has not been confirmed.
Packaging, Storage and Bulk Orders
The purchasing reference for this page is powder packed in 25 kg bags, a market-based configuration used to scope industrial enquiries. The actual Unilong grade, net bag weight, bag construction, pallet requirements, shipment quantity and lead time are not asserted as fixed specifications.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is CAS 26264-58-4 the same as Dispersant MF, NNO or SNF?
No. Those names are commonly associated with different formaldehyde-condensed naphthalene sulfonate materials. Do not substitute them for sodium methylnaphthalenesulfonate without checking the exact chemical identity and the formulation requirements.
Which industrial application is the strongest starting point for an enquiry?
Agrochemical dispersion and wetting systems are a well-documented use area. Coatings, inks, textile auxiliaries and industrial cleaning are additional application directions. The existing formulation and intended processing conditions determine the appropriate commercial grade.
Is 25 kg/bag a confirmed Unilong standard package?
It is a market-based reference pack size for this page, not a verified Unilong stock specification. Include 25 kg bags or your required packing format in the enquiry; the quotation will define what can actually be supplied.
Can the powder be used as a drop-in replacement for another dispersant?
Chemical names and product functions alone are not enough to establish substitution. Provide the current grade, its specification and the intended use so the identity and requirements can be matched before a replacement is considered.
What is needed for a bulk price and freight quotation?
Please supply the product name, CAS number, estimated order quantity, application, preferred packaging and destination port or country. If a repeat program is planned, include the expected purchasing frequency.
Can grade-specific SDS, TDS or COA documentation be requested?
Yes, include the required document type in your enquiry. Availability and the applicable version depend on the specific commercial grade and must be confirmed in the offer; this page does not display unverified quality results.
Is this material approved for every agricultural or food-related use?
No blanket end-use authorization is claimed. Regulatory treatment depends on the exact material, formulation, jurisdiction and intended use. The finished-product manufacturer must review the applicable requirements for its market.
