Description

C9-11 Alcohol Polyoxyethylene Ether is a non-ionic surfactant belonging to the alcohol ethoxylate family, synthesized from a blend of C9-11 fatty alcohols and ethylene oxide. This versatile compound is valued for its excellent wetting, emulsifying, and dispersing properties, making it a critical performance additive in numerous industrial formulations. It is essential for manufacturers in the agrochemical, textile, cleaning, and personal care industries seeking effective and stable surface-active agents.

Application

• As a key wetting and dispersing agent in agricultural formulations such as herbicides, insecticides, and fungicides.
• Primary emulsifier and detergent base in industrial and institutional cleaning products, including hard surface cleaners and degreasers.
• Critical component in textile processing for scouring, dyeing, and finishing operations to ensure even dye penetration and fiber lubrication.
• Used as an emulsifier and solubilizer in the production of paints, coatings, and inks to stabilize pigment dispersions.
• Intermediate or co-emulsifier in the formulation of personal care products like creams, lotions, and hair care items.
• Processing aid and lubricant in the polymer and plastics industry for improved mold release and surface finish.
