Description

Fettalkohol-Eo/Po-Addukte CAS NO 68855-09-4 are a versatile class of nonionic surfactants derived from fatty alcohols and ethylene oxide (EO) and/or propylene oxide (PO). These adducts are critical for their excellent emulsifying, wetting, and dispersing properties, which are tunable based on the EO/PO ratio and fatty alcohol chain length. They are essential raw materials for formulators in the personal care, industrial cleaning, textile, and agrochemical industries seeking to optimize product performance and stability.

Application

• Personal Care & Cosmetics: Key emulsifiers and solubilizers in creams, lotions, shampoos, and bath products, providing mildness and stable emulsions.
• Industrial & Institutional (I&I) Cleaning: Used in heavy-duty degreasers, hard surface cleaners, and laundry detergents for superior wetting and soil removal.
• Textile Processing: Act as lubricants, scouring agents, and dyeing assistants to improve fiber handling and color uniformity.
• Agrochemical Formulations: Employed as emulsifiers and dispersants in pesticide and herbicide concentrates to enhance sprayability and efficacy.
• Paints & Coatings: Function as pigment wetting and grinding aids to improve dispersion stability and color development.
• Metalworking Fluids: Serve as emulsifiers and lubricity agents in coolants and drawing compounds.

Quality Control

Our Fettalkohol-Eo/Po-Addukte are manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch is tested to ensure consistent performance characteristics such as hydroxyl value, cloud point, and viscosity. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting key parameters are available upon request to support your quality assurance protocols.

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, blanketing with an inert gas such as nitrogen is recommended to prevent oxidation.
