Product Name: Castor Oil Ethoxylates (5 to 100 Moles)
Category: Non-Ionic Surfactants / Specialty Chemicals
HS Code: 340242
Product Summary:
Castor Oil Ethoxylates are non-ionic surfactants produced by the ethoxylation of castor oil (Ricinus Communis), a natural triglyceride. This process involves reacting castor oil with ethylene oxide (EO), producing ethoxylates with varying degrees of ethoxylation, from 5 to 100 moles. The product’s hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB) increases with the number of ethylene oxide units, which determines its solubility and performance in different applications. These surfactants are widely used for their emulsifying, wetting, and dispersing properties.
Used in personal care products, industrial cleaners, agrochemical formulations, paints, coatings, textile processing.
Castor Oil Ethoxylates are synthesized by reacting castor oil with ethylene oxide (EO) under controlled conditions. The number of EO units (ranging from 5 to 100 moles) determines the surfactant’s hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB), affecting solubility and emulsifying performance.
These surfactants are valued for their ability to create stable emulsions, whether oil-in-water or water-in-oil, and for their ability to improve the performance of cleaning agents, coatings, and other formulations. Their non-ionic nature ensures they are less sensitive to water hardness and less affected by ionic contamination, providing stability in a wide range of industrial applications.
Castor Oil Ethoxylates are also environmentally friendly, as they are biodegradable and sourced from renewable materials, making them increasingly sought after in formulations aimed at sustainability.
