Description

Alkohol(C8-C18)Ethoxylate Mit >2 Eo is a non-ionic surfactant belonging to the alcohol ethoxylates family, characterized by its fatty alcohol chain length and a defined minimum ethoxylation degree. This compound is valued for its excellent wetting, emulsifying, and detergent properties, making it a versatile workhorse in industrial formulations. It is essential for manufacturers in the cleaning, textile, agrochemical, and personal care industries seeking effective and stable surface-active agents.

Application

• Industrial & Institutional (I&I) Cleaners: A key component in heavy-duty degreasers, floor cleaners, and spray-and-wipe formulations for its superior grease-cutting and wetting power.
• Textile Processing: Used as a scouring, wetting, and leveling agent in dyeing and finishing processes to ensure uniform color and fabric treatment.
• Agrochemical Formulations: Acts as an emulsifier and wetting agent in pesticide and herbicide concentrates, improving spray coverage and active ingredient dispersion.
• Personal Care & Cosmetics: Serves as a mild surfactant and emulsifier in products like shampoos, body washes, and creams, where its ethoxylate chain provides good compatibility with skin.
• Metal Working Fluids: Incorporated as an emulsifier and lubricity agent in coolants and cutting fluids to enhance performance and stability.
• Paints & Coatings: Functions as a dispersing and wetting agent to aid in pigment dispersion and improve the application properties of the final product.
• Pulp & Paper Industry: Employed in pulping and de-inking processes for its detergent and dispersant characteristics.
