Product name: 2 Ethyl Hexanol EO-PO Nonionic surfactant/Isomeric alcoohol ethoxylates/ EH-3 EH-6 EH-9

1.Brief

EH special surfactants won widespread concern in their field for its high-performance, low-toxicity, and biodegradable etc. They can not only improve cleaning performance of household cleaners obviously, but also are biodegradable, with aquatic toxicity (EC50) more than 10mg /L. Without any composition of alkyl phenol, they can replace NP series surfactants. Meanwhile the biodegradability is enhanced and the hazard to environment is minimized after application. EH special surfactants have excellent wetting and emulsifying properties. They can improve the cleaning ability of detergents, while reducing solvent demands in formulation. The products, with low odor, can reduce the irritation of formulation and enhance use effects. They have other properties of low foaming, easily rinsing, rapid dissolution and narrow gel range. They can shorten formulation time, especially for preparation of the concentrated formula, to reduce packaging and water.
