Application of trialkanolaminpolyether as demulsifier for oil-in-water-emulsions

摘要

Trialkanolamine polyethers, obtainable by condensing tri-alkanolamine(s) in the presence of (hypo)phosphorus acid, are useful as demulsifiers in 0/W emulsion. The trialkanolamines are of formula (I), where R1-R3 = 1,2-(2-4C)alkylene.
