Product Summary:
Product Name: Nonyl Phenol Ethoxylates (4 to 50 Moles)
Category: Non-Ionic Surfactants / Specialty Chemicals
HS Code: 340242
Product Summary:
Nonyl Phenol Ethoxylates (NPE) are non-ionic surfactants synthesized by the ethoxylation of nonylphenol (C9H19C6H4OH). With ethoxylation levels ranging from 4 to 50 moles, these surfactants exhibit excellent emulsifying, wetting, and dispersing properties. The lower mole grades (4-10 moles) are more lipophilic and are used for oil-in-water emulsions, while the higher mole grades (20-50 moles) are more hydrophilic and find applications in water-based systems.
Used in industrial and household cleaners, textiles, agrochemical formulations, paints, coatings, emulsifiers, and oilfield chemicals.
Nonyl Phenol Ethoxylates are synthesized through the ethoxylation of nonylphenol with ethylene oxide (EO), where the number of ethylene oxide units (ranging from 4 to 50) directly influences the surfactant’s hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (HLB).
Due to their non-ionic nature, NPEs offer stability and compatibility across various pH environments and in combination with both anionic and cationic surfactants. These surfactants are known for their stability and compatibility with a variety of formulations and can be used in combination with both ionic and non-ionic surfactants
