Pingpingplus O-10 (CAS number: 68439-49-6), with the chemical name Fatty Alcohol Polyoxyethylene Ether, is also known as C12-14 Alcohol Ethoxylate (10 mol EO) or C12-14 Pareth-10. It belongs to the non-ionic surfactant category and is produced and sold by Haian Guoli Chemical Co., Ltd., making it a classic product in the field of industrial surfactants.
The outstanding feature of this product is its balanced overall performance: on one hand, it has excellent emulsifying ability, forming fine and stable oil-in-water (O/W) emulsions with various oil-phase substances; on the other hand, it possesses good wetting, penetrating, and dispersing properties, effectively reducing liquid surface tension, quickly wetting various substrates, and exerting significant dispersing and stabilizing effects on solid particles and hydrophobic substances. In addition, Pingpingplus O-10 has excellent chemical stability, being resistant to acids, alkalis, and hard water, maintaining stable performance over a wide pH range and under complex water quality conditions. It can also be used in combination with anionic, cationic, and amphoteric surfactants for synergistic effects.
In terms of safety, this product is classified as non-hazardous, with GHS classifications of Skin Irritation Category 2 (H315) and Eye Irritation Category 2 (H319). It is recommended to wear personal protective equipment such as protective gloves and goggles during operation to avoid direct contact with skin and eyes. The product itself is non-flammable, and the storage temperature should be controlled between 10°C and 35°C.

With its balanced performance characteristics, Pingpingplus O-10 is widely and maturely used in the following five major fields:
1. Textile Industry: As a key component of synthetic fiber spin finishes, it provides smoothing, bundling, and antistatic functions; it is also used as a penetrating agent, leveling agent, and dispersing agent in textile printing and dyeing processes, suitable for dyeing processes such as vat dyes and reactive dyes, effectively preventing issues like color spots and white cores.
2. Industrial and Household Cleaning: Widely used in formulations for laundry detergents, kitchen cleaners, floor cleaners, and metal cleaners, it effectively removes grease and mineral oil stains, with good hard water resistance and rinsability.
3. Pesticide Formulations: As an efficient emulsifier for pesticide emulsifiable concentrates and aqueous emulsions, it helps disperse the pesticide active ingredient uniformly in water, improving the wetting and spreading of the spray liquid on plant leaves, thereby enhancing efficacy. It is suitable for insecticides, herbicides, and fungicide formulations.
4. Cosmetics and Personal Care Products: Used as an O/W emulsifier and solubilizer in creams, lotions, shampoos, and shower gels, it enables stable dispersion of oily components like oils and fragrances in the aqueous phase, resulting in a fine and white product. It is also suitable for transparent shower gels and shampoos.
5. Paints, Inks, and Metalworking Fluids: It accelerates the wetting and dispersion of pigments and fillers, preventing pigment flocculation and reagglomeration; it serves as a basic emulsifier and lubricant component in metal cutting fluids and grinding fluids, improving machining finish and rust prevention.
