Description

Fatty Acids, Tall-Oil, Esters With Polyethylene Glycol Mono(Nonylphenyl) Ether is a nonionic surfactant derived from tall oil fatty acids and ethoxylated nonylphenol. This compound is valued for its excellent emulsifying, dispersing, and wetting properties, making it a versatile performance additive. It is primarily needed by formulators in the industrial cleaning, agrochemical, textile processing, and coatings industries to enhance product stability and efficacy.

Application

• Industrial & Institutional (I&I) Cleaners: Acts as a key emulsifier and degreaser in heavy-duty alkaline and solvent-based formulations for metal, floor, and equipment cleaning.
• Agrochemical Emulsifiable Concentrates (ECs): Used as a primary or co-emulsifier in pesticide and herbicide formulations to ensure stable oil-in-water emulsions upon dilution.
• Textile Processing: Serves as a scouring, dyeing, and finishing agent to improve wetting, leveling, and fiber lubrication.
• Coatings & Inks: Functions as a pigment dispersant and grinding aid in solvent-based and water-reducible systems to improve color development and stability.
• Metalworking Fluids: Employed as an emulsifier and lubricity agent in soluble oils and semi-synthetic coolants.
• Leather Processing: Used in fatliquoring and dyeing processes to improve the penetration and distribution of oils and dyes.

Quality Control

Our Fatty Acids, Tall-Oil, Esters With Polyethylene Glycol Mono(Nonylphenyl) Ether is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure consistent performance, including measurement of key parameters like acid value, saponification value, and hydroxyl value. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting these specifications 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). This material is easily oxidized; for long-term storage, consider maintaining under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen blanket) to preserve product integrity. Keep away from strong oxidizers and heat sources.
