Description

Castor Oil, Ethoxylated, Oleate is a non-ionic surfactant derived from the ethoxylation of castor oil oleate. This versatile chemical offers excellent emulsifying, lubricating, and solubilizing properties, making it a valuable additive in numerous industrial formulations. It is particularly sought after by manufacturers in the personal care, textile, metalworking, and agrochemical industries for its ability to enhance product performance and stability.

Application

• Personal Care & Cosmetics: Acts as a primary emulsifier, solubilizer, and emollient in creams, lotions, hair conditioners, and makeup formulations.
• Textile Processing: Used as a lubricant, softener, and antistatic agent in fiber spinning and fabric finishing to improve handle and processing efficiency.
• Metalworking Fluids: Serves as an effective emulsifier and lubricity additive in soluble oils and semi-synthetic cutting and grinding fluids.
• Agrochemicals: Functions as a surfactant and emulsifier in pesticide and herbicide formulations to improve sprayability and active ingredient dispersion.
• Industrial Cleaning: Employed as a key component in degreasers and heavy-duty cleaning products for its superior emulsification of oils and fats.
• Leather Processing: Utilized as a fatliquoring agent to soften and lubricate leather fibers, improving flexibility and durability.
• Paint & Coatings: Acts as a dispersing agent and flow improver in water-based coatings and pigment preparations.
• Plastics & Polymers: Used as an internal and external lubricant and release agent in polymer processing.
