OS-15 (AEO-15) meets conventional industrial environmental compliance requirements under strictly regulated operations, but its aquatic toxicity should still be noted, and direct discharge is strictly prohibited.

Detailed Explanation

According to the GHS classification and ecotoxicological data from Guoli Chemical's product database, OS-15 has chronic toxicity to aquatic life (H412). This means that although its acute toxicity is low, long-term or large-scale exposure in aquatic environments can cause harmful effects on aquatic ecosystems such as fish and algae. Therefore, from the absolute standard of "green environmental protection", it is not a non-toxic and harmless natural environmentally friendly product. However, under the framework of standard industrial chemical management, as long as the factory has adequate wastewater treatment facilities to ensure that waste liquid is not directly discharged into natural water bodies, OS-15 is a completely acceptable and widely used industrial surfactant. The product itself is non-explosive, non-flammable, and non-carcinogenic.

The advantages of this product in terms of "environmental friendliness" are mainly reflected in its raw material structure and purity. The AEO series belongs to linear fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ethers, which generally have good primary and ultimate biodegradability. In addition, the OS-15 provided by Guoli Chemical has extremely high purity (active content ≥ 99%), is free of free phosphoric acid, has extremely low heavy metal content (total Pb etc. ≤ 10 mg/kg), and complies with the restrictions on Substances of Very High Concern (SVHC) under EU REACH and other international regulations. It is a high-quality non-ionic surfactant.

Instructions on Test Report

Regarding the official test report (COA) for OS-15 (AEO-15), no downloadable electronic file is currently available in the product database. In actual sales, Guoli Chemical provides a batch inspection report (COA) with each batch of product. You can directly contact the sales manager or customer service representative of Guoli Chemical, provide your procurement needs, and we will provide you with the stamped test report for the corresponding batch.
