Description

Poly(Oxy-1,2-Ethanediyl), .Alpha.-(Carboxymethyl)-.Omega.-Hydroxy-, C10-16 And C12-20-Unsatd. Alkyl Ethers is a high-performance, non-ionic surfactant belonging to the class of alkyl polyglycol ether carboxylates. This versatile compound is engineered to deliver superior wetting, emulsification, and dispersion properties, making it a critical component in demanding industrial formulations. It is essential for manufacturers in the agrochemical, coatings, textile, and personal care industries who require robust, stable, and efficient surfactant systems.

Application

• Agrochemical Formulations: Acts as a key wetting agent, emulsifier, and dispersant in pesticides, herbicides, and fungicides for improved foliar spreading and system stability.
• Industrial & Institutional Cleaners: Provides excellent detergency and foam control in heavy-duty alkaline and acidic cleaning products for hard surface and metal cleaning.
• Coatings & Inks: Serves as a pigment dispersant and grinding aid in water-based paints, coatings, and printing inks, enhancing color development and stability.
• Textile Processing: Used as a scouring agent, leveling agent, and emulsifier in dyeing and finishing processes for synthetic and natural fibers.
• Personal Care & Cosmetics: Functions as a mild surfactant and emulsifier in rinse-off products like shampoos and body washes, offering good compatibility with skin.
• Metal Working Fluids: Employed as an emulsifier and corrosion inhibitor in synthetic and semi-synthetic coolants and lubricants.
• Polymerization: Utilized as an emulsifier in the production of polymers via emulsion polymerization techniques.
