Description

Alkohol(C8-C18)Ethoxylate Mit >2 Eo is a non-ionic surfactant belonging to the alcohol ethoxylates family, characterized by a fatty alcohol chain length of C8 to C18 and an average ethoxylation degree greater than 2. This versatile compound is valued for its excellent wetting, emulsifying, and detergent properties, making it a critical component in formulating a wide range of industrial and consumer products. It is primarily utilized by manufacturers in the agrochemical, textile, cleaning, and personal care industries seeking effective and stable surface-active agents.

Application

• Primary emulsifier and wetting agent in agricultural formulations such as herbicides, insecticides, and fungicides.
• Key ingredient in industrial and institutional cleaning products and detergents for hard surface cleaning.
• Emulsifier and detergent base in the production of textile processing aids and scouring agents.
• Raw material for personal care products like shampoos, liquid soaps, and bath products, where mildness is required.
• Intermediate in the synthesis of other surfactant derivatives, such as sulfates and phosphates.
• Dispersing and wetting agent in paints, coatings, and latex formulations.
• Foam control agent and emulsifier in the pulp and paper industry.
