Description

Alcohols, C12-15, Ethers With Polyethylene Glycol Monobenzyl Ether is a nonionic surfactant belonging to the class of alcohol ethoxylates, specifically a benzyl-capped polyethylene glycol ether of C12-15 fatty alcohols. This compound is valued for its excellent emulsifying, wetting, and dispersing properties, making it a versatile ingredient in industrial and specialty formulations. It is primarily utilized by manufacturers in the personal care, agrochemical, and industrial cleaning sectors seeking stable, high-performance surface-active agents.

Application

• Personal Care & Cosmetics: Acts as an emulsifier and solubilizer in creams, lotions, and hair care products, helping to blend oil and water phases.
• Agrochemical Formulations: Used as a wetting agent, dispersant, and emulsifier in pesticide and herbicide concentrates to improve spray coverage and efficacy.
• Industrial & Institutional (I&I) Cleaners: Serves as a key surfactant in heavy-duty degreasers, hard surface cleaners, and textile processing aids.
• Paints & Coatings: Functions as a pigment dispersant and grinding aid to improve color development and stability in water-based systems.
• Metalworking Fluids: Employed as an emulsifier and lubricity agent in soluble oils and synthetic coolants.
• Textile Processing: Used in scouring, dyeing, and finishing baths to enhance wetting and leveling.
