Linear C12-15 Alcohol ethoxylates CAS 68131-39-5

Overview of Linear C12-15 Alcohol Ethoxylates

Linear C12-15 Alcohol ethoxylates are non-ionic surfactants made by reacting linear C12-15 alcohols with ethylene oxide. It has good cleaning performance and can effectively remove stains and grease. At the same time, it also has excellent emulsifying, dispersing, and solubilizing abilities, which can effectively reduce surface tension, improve the permeability and wettability of aqueous solutions. In addition, Linear C12-15 Alcohol ethoxylates also have advantages such as low toxicity, low irritation, and good biodegradability, making them widely used in detergents, cosmetics, pesticides, and other fields.
