Description

Np-10 CAS NO 2854-09-3 is a high-purity nonylphenol ethoxylate surfactant, a key non-ionic surfactant in the alkylphenol ethoxylate (APEO) family. It is valued for its excellent wetting, emulsifying, and detergent properties, making it a versatile workhorse in industrial formulations. This product is essential for manufacturers in sectors requiring robust surface-active agents, such as industrial and institutional cleaning, textile processing, agrochemicals, and as an intermediate in chemical synthesis.

Application

• Industrial & Institutional (I&I) Cleaners: A primary surfactant in heavy-duty degreasers, floor cleaners, and detergent formulations for its effective soil removal and emulsification.
• Textile Processing: Used as a scouring agent, wetting agent, and emulsifier in dyeing and finishing processes to ensure even dye penetration and fabric treatment.
• Agrochemical Formulations: Acts as an emulsifier and dispersant in pesticides, herbicides, and adjuvant systems to enhance spray coverage and active ingredient efficacy.
• Chemical Intermediate: Serves as a crucial raw material for the synthesis of other specialty surfactants and chemical derivatives.
• Metal Working Fluids: Employed as an emulsifier and lubricity agent in coolants and cutting oils.
• Pulp & Paper Industry: Functions as a de-inking agent and dispersant in paper recycling and processing.
• Emulsion Polymerization: Used as a stabilizer and emulsifier in the production of acrylic, vinyl acetate, and other polymer emulsions.
