Description
Fatty Alcohol Ethoxylate (AEO-9) is a non-ionic surfactant belonging to the fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether series. Its chemical name usually refers to the polyoxyethylene ether synthesized through the reaction between fatty alcohol and ethylene oxide, where "AEO" represents the ethoxylation product of fatty alcohol, and the number "9" indicates the average moles of ethylene oxide added.
The fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether series of surfactants are generally considered to be relatively safe and environmentally friendly. They have a high degree of biodegradability, minimizing long-term cumulative environmental impacts. However, the use of any chemical substance should follow safety guidelines, especially in industrial applications, to properly manage potential impacts on the environment and human health.
Product Parameters
Chemical Structure
Chemical Name: Fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether (AEO-9).
Molecular Weight: The molecular weight varies with the carbon chain length of the starting fatty alcohol and the exact number of ethoxylation units but typically ranges between 300 and 500.
Physical Properties
Appearance: AEO-9 is usually a colorless to pale yellow liquid or paste.
Solubility: It is highly soluble in water and can mix with various organic solvents, such as ethanol and acetone.
Cloud Point: As a non-ionic surfactant, AEO-9 forms a cloudy appearance in aqueous solutions at a certain concentration. This temperature is known as the cloud point, which varies with the fatty alcohol chain length and the number of ethoxylation units.
Chemical Properties
Stability: AEO-9 is chemically stable at room temperature but may decompose under high temperatures or in acidic or alkaline conditions.
Reactivity: It can react with acids and bases, forming corresponding hydrolysis or esterification products.
Biodegradability: It has good biodegradability, making it an environmentally friendly chemical substance.
Application-related Chemical Characteristics
Surface Activity: It significantly reduces the surface and interfacial tension of liquids, promoting emulsification, dispersion, and wetting.
Emulsifying Properties: It can effectively emulsify immiscible substances such as oil and water, widely used in the production of emulsifiers and detergents.
Wetting and Penetration Properties: It enhances the wetting and penetration capabilities of materials, beneficial for the performance of detergents and softeners.
Uses
Non-ionic surfactants are mainly used as emulsifiers for emulsions, creams, and shampoo-type cosmetics. They have excellent water solubility and can be used to produce water-in-oil emulsions. Additionally, they can also serve as antistatic agents. As hydrophilic emulsifiers, they can enhance the solubility of certain substances in water and are suitable for making O/W (oil in water) type emulsions. They have good emulsifying, decontaminating, and cleansing properties, and are widely used in the preparation of household detergents, industrial emulsifiers, and metal cleaners, among others. The AEO secondary alcohol series, fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether (C12~14 secondary alcohol structure), is produced through the cracking of paraffin to generate α-olefins, which are then further processed into linear secondary alcohols. These products dissolve in water and various organic solvents, do not contain APEO, and have excellent emulsifying, dispersing, diffusing, and decontaminating washing properties. This series of products can be used in combination with various anionic, cationic, non-ionic surfactants, and other auxiliaries to achieve synergistic effects and high-performance products, thereby reducing the consumption of auxiliaries and offering an outstanding performance-price ratio. These products have many excellent properties and qualities:
1. Low viscosity, low freezing point, and virtually no gelation;
2. Strong wetting and emulsifying capabilities, along with outstanding low-temperature washing performance and solubilizing, dispersing, and wetting properties;
3. Uniform foaming performance and good defoaming properties;
4. Good biodegradability, environmentally friendly, and low skin irritancy;
5. Odorless, with an extremely low content of unreacted alcohol.
Secondary alcohol AEO-9 is an excellent penetrant, emulsifier, wetting agent, and cleaner, possessing better cleaning, decontaminating, penetrating, and emulsifying abilities than TX-10, and does not contain APEO, ensuring good biodegradability and environmental friendliness. It can be used in combination with other anionic, non-ionic, and cationic surfactants, exhibiting outstanding synergistic effects, significantly reducing the consumption of auxiliaries and achieving a good cost-performance ratio. It can enhance the efficacy of thickeners used in paint and improve the washability of solvent-based systems. It has a wide range of uses in high-efficiency precision cleaning, paint coatings, papermaking, pesticide fertilizers, dry cleaning, textile processing, and oilfield exploitation.
