Description

Alkohol(C8-C18)Ethoxylate Mit >2 Eo is a non-ionic surfactant belonging to the alcohol ethoxylates family, characterized by its fatty alcohol chain length and a defined minimum degree of ethoxylation. This compound is valued for its excellent wetting, emulsifying, and detergent properties, making it a versatile workhorse in numerous industrial formulations. It is primarily needed by manufacturers in the cleaning, textile, agrochemical, and personal care industries for creating stable and effective end products.

Application

• Industrial & Institutional (I&I) Cleaners: Key component in heavy-duty degreasers, floor cleaners, and spray-and-wipe formulations for its superior grease-cutting and wetting power.
• Household Detergents: Used in liquid laundry detergents, dishwashing liquids, and all-purpose cleaners for effective soil removal and foam control.
• Textile Processing: Acts as a scouring agent, wetting agent, and emulsifier in fiber preparation, dyeing, and finishing baths.
• Agrochemical Formulations: Serves as an emulsifier and dispersant in pesticide and herbicide concentrates, improving sprayability and plant coverage.
• Personal Care & Cosmetics: Employed as a mild surfactant and emulsifier in shampoos, body washes, and cream rinses.
• Metal Working Fluids: Functions as an emulsifier and lubricity agent in soluble oils and synthetic coolants.
• Paints & Coatings: Used as a pigment wetting and dispersing agent to improve color development and stability.
• Pulp & Paper Industry: Applied as a de-inking agent and dispersant in paper recycling and production processes.
