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 degree of ethoxylation. This versatile compound is engineered to deliver excellent wetting, emulsifying, and dispersing properties in aqueous systems. It is a critical raw material for formulators in the industrial cleaning, agrochemical, textile, and personal care industries seeking reliable performance and consistent quality.

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.
• Agrochemical Formulations: Used as an emulsifier and wetting agent in pesticide and herbicide concentrates to enhance spray coverage and active ingredient efficacy.
• Textile Processing: Employed in scouring, dyeing, and finishing baths to improve penetration of chemicals and uniformity of treatment on fibers.
• Metal Working Fluids: Acts as an emulsifier and lubricity agent in soluble oils and semi-synthetic coolants.
• Paint & Coatings: Functions as a pigment dispersant and grinding aid to improve color development and stability in water-based systems.
• Personal Care & Cosmetics: Serves as a mild surfactant and emulsifier in rinse-off products like shampoos and body washes, depending on the specific grade and purity.

Quality Control

Our Alkohol(C8-C18)Ethoxylate is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing to ensure critical parameters such as hydroxyl value, cloud point, and ethoxylate distribution meet stringent specifications. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing these results is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and performance consistency for your formulations.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Keep away from strong oxidizing agents. Under these conditions, the product has an extended shelf life. For long-term storage, the use of a nitrogen blanket is recommended to minimize oxidation.
