Isomeric Tridecanol Polyether E-1310 (CAS No.: 9043-30-5) is a nonionic surfactant produced by addition polymerization of ethylene oxide using isomeric tridecanol as the initiator. Its unique isomerized hydrophobic chain structure endows the product with comprehensive properties such as low foam, strong wetting and penetration, and excellent emulsification and dispersion, making it a core functional component in multiple industrial fields.
The product exhibits excellent chemical stability, maintaining activity in acid, alkali, hard water, and electrolyte systems, and has good compatibility with anionic, cationic, and other nonionic surfactants, providing high flexibility for formulation design.
| Application Industry | Specific Process/Use | Functional Role |
|---|---|---|
| Industrial and Household Cleaning | Hard surface cleaners, metal degreasers, multi-purpose detergents | Detergency, low-foam emulsification, easy rinsing |
| Textile Printing and Dyeing Auxiliaries | Desizing, scouring, refining, dyeing processes | Wetting agent, scouring agent, leveling agent |
| Leather Processing | Soaking, degreasing, softening and other pretreatments | Removing natural fats, promoting chemical penetration |
| Pesticide Formulation | Emulsifiable concentrate (EC), oil-in-water emulsion (EW), microemulsion (ME) | Emulsifier, wetting and spreading agent |
| Emulsion Polymerization | Synthetic emulsions such as vinyl acetate and acrylates | Emulsifying and stabilizing monomers, ensuring uniform latex particles |
• Cleaning Formulations: Leveraging its low foam and strong detergency, it is suitable for hard surface and metal cleaning applications requiring quick rinsing.
• Textile Pretreatment: As a wetting agent, it efficiently removes impurities such as cotton wax and sizing agents, enhancing whiteness and dye uptake.
• Pesticide Formulations: Ensures the dilution stability of the spray solution in EC/EW/ME systems, optimizing spray wetting and target spreading.
• Emulsion Polymerization: Provides steric stabilization to monomer droplets, ensuring the mechanical and freeze-thaw stability of the latex system.
