Description

Alcohols, C7-9-Branched, C8-Rich, Ethoxylated Propoxylated is a high-performance, nonionic surfactant synthesized from a branched C8-rich alcohol feedstock. This compound matters for its superior wetting, emulsifying, and detergency properties, offering excellent stability and compatibility in demanding formulations. It is primarily needed by manufacturers in the industrial & institutional cleaning, agrochemical, textile processing, and coatings industries seeking effective surface-active agents.

Application

• Industrial & Institutional (I&I) Cleaners: Key component in heavy-duty degreasers, floor cleaners, and spray-and-wipe formulations for its robust cleaning and low-foaming profile.
• Agrochemical Formulations: Acts as an effective emulsifier and wetting agent in pesticide and herbicide concentrates, enhancing spray coverage and active ingredient efficacy.
• Textile Processing: Used in scouring, dyeing, and finishing baths to improve wetting, level dyeing, and fiber lubrication.
• Coatings and Inks: Serves as a dispersant and flow control agent in water-based systems, improving pigment stabilization and application properties.
• Metal Working Fluids: Functions as an emulsifier and lubricity agent in synthetic and semi-synthetic coolants and drawing compounds.
• Pulp and Paper Processing: Employed as a debonding agent, dispersant, and cleaning additive in various pulping and papermaking stages.
