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 primarily needed by manufacturers in the cleaning, textile, agrochemical, and personal care industries for creating stable and effective products.

Application

• Industrial & Institutional (I&I) Cleaners: A key component in heavy-duty degreasers, floor cleaners, and spray-and-wipe formulations for its robust cleaning power.
• Textile Processing: Used as a wetting agent, scouring aid, and emulsifier in fiber pretreatment, dyeing, and finishing baths.
• Agrochemical Formulations: Acts as an emulsifier and dispersant in pesticide and herbicide concentrates, enhancing sprayability and efficacy.
• Household & Laundry Detergents: Provides effective soil removal and foam control in liquid and powder detergent systems.
• Personal Care & Cosmetics: Serves as a mild surfactant and emulsifier in products like shampoos, body washes, and creams.
• Metal Working Fluids: Functions as an emulsifier and lubricity agent in coolants and cutting fluids.
• Paints & Coatings: Used as a pigment dispersant and grinding aid to improve color development and stability.
• Pulp & Paper Industry: Employed as a de-inking agent and dispersant in paper recycling and processing.
