Description

Alcohols, C9-11, Ethoxylated Propoxylated is a nonionic surfactant belonging to the class of alkoxylated alcohols, synthesized from a C9-11 fatty alcohol cut that has been reacted with both ethylene oxide (EO) and propylene oxide (PO). This dual alkoxylation provides a versatile balance of hydrophilic and lipophilic properties, making it an effective emulsifier, wetting agent, and detergent. It is widely utilized in the formulation of industrial and institutional cleaners, textile processing aids, agricultural adjuvants, and various emulsion systems.

Application

• Industrial & Institutional (I&I) Cleaners: Acts as a key surfactant and emulsifier in heavy-duty degreasers, floor cleaners, and hard surface detergents.
• Textile Processing: Used as a scouring agent, wetting agent, and emulsifier in fiber preparation and dyeing processes.
• Agricultural Formulations: Serves as an effective emulsifier and adjuvant in pesticide and herbicide concentrates, enhancing spray coverage and efficacy.
• Metalworking Fluids: Functions as an emulsifier and lubricity agent in soluble oils and semi-synthetic coolants.
• Paints & Coatings: Employed as a dispersing and wetting agent in water-based emulsion paints and coatings.
• Personal Care & Cosmetics: Can be used as an emulsifier and solubilizer in select rinse-off products, depending on the specific grade and purity.
• Pulp & Paper Industry: Utilized in de-inking formulations and as a process aid for pulp washing and bleaching.
