Description

Oxirane, Methyl-, Polymer With Oxirane, Tridecyl Ether CAS NO 61725-89-1 is a nonionic surfactant belonging to the class of polyoxyethylene tridecyl ethers. This chemical is valued for its excellent wetting, emulsifying, and dispersing properties in aqueous systems. It is a critical raw material for formulators in the industrial cleaning, agrochemical, textile, and coatings industries, where consistent performance and supply reliability are paramount.

Application

• Industrial & Institutional (I&I) Cleaners: Acts as a key surfactant in heavy-duty degreasers, alkaline cleaners, and floor care formulations for its robust wetting and soil emulsification.
• Agrochemical Adjuvants: Used as a wetting agent, spreader, or emulsifier in pesticide and herbicide formulations to enhance foliar coverage and efficacy.
• Textile Processing: Employed in scouring, dyeing, and finishing baths to improve penetration of chemicals and uniformity of dye application.
• Coatings & Paints: Serves as a dispersing and wetting agent in water-based architectural and industrial coatings to ensure pigment stability and smooth application.
• Metal Working Fluids: Functions as an emulsifier and lubricity agent in synthetic and semi-synthetic metalworking coolants.
• Pulp & Paper Industry: Utilized in pulping and de-inking processes as a detergent and dispersant for lignin and inks.

Quality Control

Every batch of our Oxirane, Methyl-, Polymer With Oxirane, Tridecyl Ether is manufactured under a strict quality management system. We perform rigorous in-process and final testing to ensure critical parameters such as hydroxyl value, cloud point, and viscosity meet precise specifications. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing assay, physical properties, and conformance is provided with each shipment to guarantee consistency and traceability 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. For long-term storage, consider under an inert atmosphere to prevent oxidation. Keep container tightly sealed when not in use to minimize moisture absorption.
