| Physical and Chemical Properties | Emulsifier AEO-9 is the largest variety in AEO series products. The appearance is milky white to light yellow ointment, soluble in water, 610 molecular weight, HLB value is 13.3,pH value (1% aqueous solution) 6.5~7.5, non-toxic. Emulsifier AEO-9 is mainly used for the preparation of various detergents. Emulsifier AEO-9 has strong detergency for cotton fiber and polyester, but its foaming property is weak and foam stability is poor. It is suitable for the preparation of detergent for medium and low foam machines. |
| Use | Surfactants have a wide range of uses, from the preparation of detergents, the construction of primitive cells to the delivery and release of drugs are inseparable from its participation. Therefore, the synthesis and application of surfactants has always been a hot research topic. Fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether (AEO), also known as alcohol ether and alcohol ethoxylate, is the fastest growing and largest variety of non-ionic surfactants. In recent years, it has developed rapidly and has partially replaced sodium alkylbenzene sulfonate. As the main active substance of household detergents, it is an important variety of industrial surfactants. Therefore, there are many researches on it at home and abroad. The main reasons are: AEO has excellent biodegradability and low temperature performance; it is not affected by water hardness, and is more suitable for washing synthetic fibers. It can be used for powder formula and liquid detergent formula; and the price is low. According to foreign forecasts, AEO usage will continue to grow and may become the dominant household detergent. |
