Description

Alkohol(C8-C18)Ethoxylate Mit >2 Eo is a non-ionic surfactant belonging to the alcohol ethoxylate family, characterized by its fatty alcohol chain length and a controlled degree of ethoxylation. This compound is valued for its excellent wetting, emulsifying, and detergent properties, making it a versatile workhorse in numerous 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 agent, wetting agent, and emulsifier in dyeing and finishing baths to ensure even dye penetration and fabric treatment.
• Agrochemical Formulations: Acts as an effective 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 hand soaps, shampoos, and cream rinses, where its controlled ethoxylation provides desirable performance.
• Metal Working Fluids: Incorporated as an emulsifier and lubricity agent in soluble oils and semi-synthetic coolants.
• Paints & Coatings: Functions as a pigment dispersant and grinding aid, enhancing color development and stability in water-based systems.
• Pulp & Paper Industry: Used in de-inking processes and as a dispersant to improve pulp drainage and sheet formation.
