Description

Poly(Oxy-1,2-Ethanediyl), .Alpha.-Hydro-.Omega.-Hydroxy-, Ether With 2-[3-(C12-14-Alkyloxy)-2-Hydroxypropoxy]-1-Propanol CAS NO 73018-57-2 is a high-performance, non-ionic surfactant belonging to the class of ethoxylated alkyl polyglycoside derivatives. This compound is valued for its excellent emulsifying, wetting, and dispersing properties, offering superior performance in demanding formulations. It is a critical ingredient for manufacturers in the personal care, agrochemical, and industrial cleaning sectors seeking effective, stable, and versatile surface-active agents.

Application

• Personal Care & Cosmetics: Acts as a primary emulsifier and solubilizer in creams, lotions, and hair care products, providing stable oil-in-water emulsions and enhancing product feel.
• Agrochemical Formulations: Used as a key component in pesticide and herbicide concentrates to improve wetting, spreading, and penetration on plant surfaces.
• Industrial & Institutional (I&I) Cleaners: Serves as a powerful surfactant in heavy-duty degreasers, hard surface cleaners, and detergent blends for its robust cleaning and foam control.
• Textile Processing: Employed as a wetting agent and dye leveling assistant to ensure uniform dye uptake and processing efficiency.
• Paints & Coatings: Functions as a dispersing agent for pigments and fillers, improving color development and stability in aqueous coating systems.
• Oilfield Chemicals: Utilized in drilling muds and production chemicals for its emulsification and demulsification properties.
