Description

Teric 200 is a high-performance, non-ionic surfactant belonging to the alkyl phenol ethoxylate (APEO) family, identified by CAS NO 63496-57-1. It is valued for its excellent emulsifying, wetting, and dispersing properties, providing critical performance in demanding industrial formulations. This versatile chemical is essential for manufacturers in sectors such as agrochemicals, industrial cleaning, textiles, and emulsion polymerization, where reliable surface activity is required.

Application

• Agrochemical Formulations: Acts as a key emulsifier and wetting agent in pesticides, herbicides, and fungicides.
• Industrial & Institutional (I&I) Cleaning: Used in heavy-duty degreasers, metal cleaners, and detergent blends for its robust cleaning power.
• Textile Processing: Serves as a scouring agent, dye leveler, and wetting agent in fiber treatment and dye baths.
• Emulsion Polymerization: Functions as a primary emulsifier and stabilizer in the production of synthetic latexes, such as acrylics and styrene-butadiene.
• Metal Working Fluids: Incorporated as an emulsifier in soluble oils and coolants for machining and grinding operations.
• Paint & Coatings: Used as a dispersant and grinding aid for pigments to improve color development and stability.

Quality Control

Every batch of Teric 200 is manufactured under a stringent quality management system. Our products undergo rigorous testing to ensure consistent performance, including verification of hydroxyl value, cloud point, pH, and moisture content. Certificates of Analysis (COA) confirming compliance with agreed specifications are available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at ambient temperatures (15-25°C). Keep away from strong oxidizing agents. For long-term storage, under an inert atmosphere such as nitrogen is recommended to prevent oxidation.
