Environmentally friendly penetrant JFC-M alcohol is a non-ionic surfactant with fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether as its core component, featuring five key characteristics: efficient penetration and wetting, excellent chemical compatibility, environmental friendliness, low foam and easy rinsing, and wide formulation compatibility.
Detailed Description
Environmentally friendly penetrant JFC-M alcohol (CAS number: 5689-56-3) appears as a colorless to light yellow transparent liquid. Its chemical composition is fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether, belonging to non-ionic surfactants. The product is free of APEO (alkylphenol polyoxyethylene ether), exhibits excellent biodegradability (OECD 301B standard, >60% degradation in 28 days), meets major global environmental regulations, and represents a typical new generation of green and environmentally friendly auxiliaries.
In terms of performance, JFC-M alcohol can achieve deep penetration and uniform wetting in a very short time, significantly improving the efficiency and product quality of various industrial processes. Its chemical compatibility is particularly outstanding - it remains stable under a wide range of acid, alkali, and hard water conditions, adapting to complex process environments. At the same time, the product shows a low foaming tendency in practical applications, with good foam control and easy rinsing, effectively reducing water consumption and energy usage.
In terms of formulation adaptability, JFC-M alcohol can be well compounded with anionic, cationic, and amphoteric auxiliaries, showing wide formulation compatibility. In terms of safety, the product is not classified as GHS hazardous goods, has low acute oral toxicity (rat oral LD50 >2000 mg/kg), is non-irritating to skin and eyes, and is safe and reliable to use.

Application Suggestions
Based on the five key characteristics of JFC-M alcohol, its main application scenarios include:
- Textile dyeing and finishing: Used as a pretreatment penetrant and scouring agent, accelerating the penetration of alkali and auxiliaries during desizing, scouring, and bleaching processes of cotton, linen, and other fibers, improving capillary effect and whiteness.
- Industrial hard surface cleaning: Used for degreasing and cleaning metal parts, equipment containers, etc., effectively penetrating between oil stains and substrates, promoting emulsion and removal of oil stains.
- Leather processing: Used in degreasing processes, accelerating the penetration of degreasing agents into the leather inner layer, improving the efficiency of emulsification and removal of natural oils.
- Papermaking process: Applied in felt cleaning and deinking of waste paper, enhancing the ability to suspend and separate ink particles, improving pulp cleanliness.
- Pesticide formulations: As a penetration synergist, reducing the surface tension of the spray liquid, enhancing spreading, adhesion, and penetration on target surfaces.
Precautions
- It is recommended to store at temperatures between 5°C and 40°C, avoiding freezing and high temperature exposure to prevent product deterioration.
