Due to price fluctuations influenced by raw material markets, procurement volumes, logistics distances, etc., the price information in the database is for reference only (the last updated price is 0 RMB/ton, which is placeholder data). The actual transaction price needs to be confirmed by the sales team based on the daily quotation.

Notes

  • Span S-20 coconut oil acid is a non-hazardous chemical with no flammability risk. It can be stored at room temperature, but the container must be kept sealed and protected from moisture.
  • Storage temperature is recommended at 5–40°C to avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles that may affect product fluidity.
  • It is recommended to wear protective goggles and work clothes during operation. Although the irritability is very low (skin irritation index PII=0), unnecessary direct contact should still be avoided.
  • For bulk purchases, please confirm the delivery lead time. Regular grades have sufficient stock, while special packaging requirements may need advance production scheduling.
