- Catalog: SUR-NON-072
- Applications: Industrial and household cleaning, textile and dyeing industry, others
Nonylphenol polyoxyethylene ether (NPE) is synthesized by reacting nonylphenol with ethylene oxide, leading to a series of compounds with varying lengths of polyoxyethylene chains. The general formula can be represented as C9H19C6H4(OCH2CH2)nOH, where "n" denotes the number of ethylene oxide units. This variability in the ethylene oxide chain length results in a range of products from liquid to paste forms, and from oil-soluble to water-soluble compounds. It is renowned for its exceptional emulsifying, dispersing, and wetting properties, which make it a versatile agent in numerous sectors.
NPE exhibits several notable characteristics that enhance its functionality in diverse applications:
Type | Appearance 25 °C | Hydroxyl Value (mgKOH/g) | Cloud Point (℃, 1% aqueous) | Moisture (%) | pH (1% aqueous) |
TX-4 | Colorless liquid | 141±4 | -- | ≤ 1.0 | 5.0-7.0 |
TX-6 | Colorless liquid | 115±4 | -- | ≤ 1.0 | 5.0-7.0 |
TX-9 | Colorless liquid | 91±4 | 48-52 | ≤ 1.0 | 5.0-7.0 |
TX-10 | Colorless liquid | 85±4 | 60-70 | ≤ 1.0 | 5.0-7.0 |
TX-50 | White flake | 23±2 | -- | ≤ 2.0 | 5.0-7.0 |
TX-100 | White flake | 12±1 | -- | ≤ 2.0 | 5.0-7.0 |
