Environmentally friendly penetrant JFC (CAS No.: 68439-50-9) is a classic nonionic surfactant product produced by Haian Guoli Chemical Co., Ltd., with the core component of fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether (C8-C10 alcohol). The product appears as a colorless to slightly yellow transparent liquid, belonging to the category of environmentally friendly auxiliaries. Its molecular structure contains both hydrophilic groups (polyoxyethylene chains) and hydrophobic groups (fatty alcohol carbon chains), which enable it to significantly reduce the surface tension of aqueous solutions, thus exhibiting excellent penetration, wetting and emulsifying properties.
As a nonionic surfactant, JFC is not affected by calcium and magnesium ions in water and maintains high performance even in hard water. At the same time, it has excellent stability to acids and alkalis, can be used in a wide pH range, and is compatible with anionic, cationic and other nonionic surfactants, giving it high flexibility in complex formulation systems.
In industrial practice, environmentally friendly penetrant JFC has become an indispensable auxiliary in the pretreatment process of textile printing and dyeing - from desizing, scouring to bleaching, it helps the working liquid quickly and uniformly penetrate into the fiber interior, significantly improving capillary effect and whiteness. In addition, it has mature applications in multiple fields such as leather soaking and degreasing, paper deinking, industrial hard surface cleaning, pesticide formulation emulsification, and water-based paint wetting and dispersion.

1. Textile Printing and Dyeing Pretreatment: Used as a high-efficiency penetrant in desizing, scouring and bleaching processes for cotton, linen, synthetic fibers and blended fabrics, quickly wetting the fibers, allowing the working liquid to penetrate uniformly into the yarn interior, significantly improving capillary effect and whiteness. Its low-foaming property is especially suitable for high-speed overflow dyeing machines.
2. Leather Processing: Used in the soaking process of raw hides, accelerating the penetration of water into the fiber interior, shortening soaking time, and promoting the dissolution of salts and soluble proteins; in degreasing stage, used together with alkaline auxiliaries to effectively emulsify and remove natural oils.
3. Industrial Hard Surface Cleaning: Suitable for water-based cleaning formulations for metal parts, molds, pipes, etc. With excellent penetrating power, it can penetrate into the gaps between oil stains and substrates, maintaining good cleaning efficiency even at room temperature.
4. Pesticide Formulations: Used as a wetting and dispersing component in wettable powders, improving the wetting speed and suspension rate of technical material particles; in emulsifiable concentrate formulations, it acts as a co-emulsifier, improving the spontaneous dispersion and dilution stability of the emulsion.
5. Paper Deinking and Water-Based Coatings: In waste paper deinking, it promotes ink detachment and dispersion; in water-based coatings and ink systems, it rapidly wets pigments and fillers, assisting dispersion and improving spreading and leveling.
