Tergitol is a non-ionic surfactant. Non ionic surfactants used in paint and coatings, paper and textile processing, cleaning agents and detergents, agricultural chemicals, and metalworking fluids; It has excellent descaling properties, outstanding wettability, universal solubility, and excellent processing performance. It can also be used for oilfield drilling and production formulation.
Benefits
· Excellent oil-soluble surfactant
· Low HLB emulsifier
· Low odor
· Exceptional handling properties
Application
Tergitol has been used in a study to evaluate the structural characteristics and antibacterial properties of silver nanoparticles. In a study, it was also used to investigate the detection of Salmonella serotype enteritis in the gut from environmental samples of natural pollution in a comprehensive poultry house. Can be used for: cleaning product formulations, paints and coatings, emulsion polymerization, and any place where surface activity needs to be increased.
Advantage
Combining economy and high performance;
Excellent descaling and wetting properties;
Good solubility and emulsification.
