Description

Tall Oil Fatty Acid, Triethanolamine Ester, Ethoxylated is a nonionic surfactant derived from renewable tall oil feedstock. This versatile compound is valued for its excellent emulsifying, dispersing, and wetting properties in aqueous systems. It is a critical component for formulators in the agrochemical, coatings, textile, and metalworking industries seeking high-performance, sustainable surfactant solutions.

Application

• Agrochemical Formulations: Acts as a key emulsifier and dispersant in pesticide concentrates (EC, SC, EW) and adjuvant blends.
• Coatings & Inks: Used as a pigment grinding aid, dispersant, and stabilizer in water-based paints, inks, and resin systems.
• Metalworking Fluids: Provides emulsification and lubrication in synthetic and semi-synthetic cutting fluids and coolants.
• Textile Processing: Serves as a scouring agent, dye leveler, and finishing aid due to its wetting and dispersing action.
• Industrial Cleaners: Functions as a surfactant in heavy-duty degreasers and institutional cleaning products.
• Oilfield Chemicals: Employed in drilling muds and production chemicals as an emulsifier and corrosion inhibitor component.
