Isotridecanol polyether E-1306 has good environmental performance, but the current database does not include specific test report files.

Detailed Description

Isotridecanol polyether E-1306 performs well in terms of environmental protection. According to the information in the Guoli Chemical product database, this product exhibits good biodegradability and meets increasingly stringent environmental regulations, and is explicitly described as "an ideal choice for various green formulation systems." This means that under normal use conditions, the product can be gradually decomposed by microorganisms in the natural environment, does not accumulate in the ecosystem over the long term, and has a relatively small impact on the environment.

This product is a nonionic surfactant, produced by the addition polymerization of ethylene oxide using isotridecanol as the initiator. Compared to traditional linear alcohol polyether products, its unique branched structure not only provides a faster reduction rate of dynamic surface tension but also maintains good biodegradability. It can balance both performance and environmental requirements in multiple fields such as industrial cleaning, textile auxiliaries, and pesticide formulations.

Regarding test reports, currently the Guoli Chemical product database does not include specific test report files corresponding to this product (such as biodegradation rate test reports, ROHS test reports, REACH compliance statements, or third-party test certificates beyond the SDS). If you need to obtain official test reports before purchase, we recommend contacting the Guoli Chemical sales or technical department directly, specifying the required report types (e.g., OECD 301 biodegradability test report, heavy metal content test report, etc.), and the official channel will issue a stamped version for you.

Application Suggestions

This product is particularly suitable for the development of green environmental formulation systems, such as low-VOC cleaning agents, environmentally friendly textile auxiliaries, and water-based pesticide emulsifiable concentrates. Its low odor and low foam characteristics also help reduce the risk of exposure to harmful volatiles in the working environment. During formulation design, its excellent acid-alkali resistance and hard water tolerance can be fully utilized to reduce the amount of auxiliaries needed, thereby lowering the overall environmental load of the product from the source.

Precautions

  • Although the product itself has good biodegradability, cleaning waste liquids or wastewater containing the product must still be properly treated in accordance with local environmental regulations and must not be directly discharged into water bodies.
  • Test reports need to be applied through official business channels. Typically, batch-specific COA (Certificate of Analysis), MSDS/SDS, and tailored third-party test reports can be provided based on customer requirements.
  • The product is classified as GHS eye irritation Category 2. In addition to environmental assessment, operators must still pay attention to eye protection.
