Description

Alkohol(C8-C18)Ethoxylate Mit >2 Eo is a non-ionic surfactant belonging to the class of fatty alcohol ethoxylates, characterized by its ethoxylation degree of greater than 2 moles of ethylene oxide per mole of alcohol. This compound is valued for its excellent wetting, emulsifying, and detergent properties, making it a versatile workhorse in numerous industrial formulations. It is essential for manufacturers in the cleaning, textile, agrochemical, and personal care industries seeking effective and stable surface-active agents.

Application

• Industrial & Institutional (I&I) Cleaners: A key component in heavy-duty degreasers, floor cleaners, and detergent formulations for its superior grease-cutting and soil suspension capabilities.
• Textile Processing: Used as a wetting agent, scouring aid, and emulsifier in fiber pretreatment, dyeing, and finishing baths.
• Agrochemical Formulations: Acts as an effective emulsifier and dispersant in pesticide and herbicide concentrates (EC, SC, EW formulations).
• Personal Care & Cosmetics: Serves as a mild surfactant and emulsifier in products like shampoos, shower gels, and cream rinses.
• Metal Working Fluids: Functions as an emulsifier and lubricity agent in soluble oils and semi-synthetic coolants.
• Paints & Coatings: Employed as a pigment wetting and dispersing agent to improve color development and stability.
• Pulp & Paper Industry: Used in de-inking processes and as a dispersant for pitch control.
