octyl phenyl polyoxyethylene (3) ether - Introduction
OPE-3 is an emulsifier, its full name is octanol polyoxyethylene ether -3. The following is a description of the nature, use, preparation and safety information of the OPE-3:
Nature:
OPE-3 is a colorless to pale yellow liquid, soluble in water and many organic solvents. It has good surface active properties and can form stable emulsions.
Use:
OPE-3 are mainly used as emulsifiers and dispersants. It is widely used in medicine, cosmetics, dyes, pesticides and coatings industries. It can promote the mixing of oil and water and stabilize the form of the emulsion, and can also help disperse and suspend solid particles.
Preparation Method:
The preparation of OPE-3 mainly depends on the polymerization reaction. Generally, the target product is obtained by polymerizing octanol and ethylene glycol in the presence of a catalyst and then reacting with the gasoline compound produced by the emulsifier.
Safety Information:
OPE-3 has low toxicity under normal use conditions, but it is still necessary to pay attention to safe use. Avoid long-term contact with skin, such as contact with skin should be promptly washed with soap and water. At the same time, it should also be avoided into the eyes or eating. During use, maintain good ventilation conditions and keep away from open flames and high temperatures. In handling and storage, should follow the appropriate safety procedures.
