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 essential for its excellent wetting, emulsifying, and detergent properties, making it a critical component in formulating high-performance industrial and institutional cleaning products. It is primarily needed by manufacturers in the detergent, agrochemical, textile, and personal care industries seeking reliable and effective surface-active agents.

Application

• Industrial & Institutional (I&I) Cleaners: A key surfactant in heavy-duty degreasers, floor cleaners, and alkaline detergents for its robust cleaning and wetting power.
• Household Detergents: Used in liquid laundry detergents, dishwashing liquids, and all-purpose cleaners for effective soil removal and foam control.
• Agrochemical Formulations: Acts as an emulsifier and wetting agent in pesticide and herbicide concentrates to enhance spray coverage and efficacy.
• Textile Processing: Employed as a scouring agent, wetting agent, and dyeing assistant in various textile manufacturing steps.
• Personal Care & Cosmetics: Functions as a mild surfactant and emulsifier in select personal cleansing products and cosmetic formulations.
• Metal Working Fluids: Serves as an emulsifier and lubricity agent in coolants and cutting fluids.
• Pulp & Paper Industry: Used in de-inking processes and as a dispersant for pigments and fillers.
