Alcohol Ethoxylate-9

AEO-9 (Fatty Alcohol Polyoxyethylene Ether) stands as the most widely utilized grade within the AEO series, characterized by a higher degree of ethoxylation (9 mol) and strong hydrophilicity (HLB value of approx. 13-14). It is celebrated for achieving the perfect equilibrium between powerful emulsification and superior detergency, making it a "universal" surfactant for diverse industries.

Personal Care and Skin Tolerance
In the realm of personal hygiene, AEO-9 is a staple in shampoos and liquid hand soaps. When compounded with Cocamidopropyl Betaine (CAPB), it synergistically enhances oil removal capabilities while maintaining a mild profile suitable for daily use. In facial cleansers, it acts as a secondary surfactant that boosts cleansing efficiency without compromising the integrity of the skin barrier, ensuring a thorough yet gentle wash.

High-Performance Home Care and Industrial Cleaning
AEO-9 dominates the liquid laundry detergent market as a primary surfactant. It demonstrates exceptional cleaning power, with proven removal rates of sebum and mineral oil reaching up to 95%. A key logistical and functional advantage is its excellent low-temperature fluidity, which ensures the product remains liquid and easy to pour even in cold climates or winter conditions.

Agricultural and Specialized Applications
In the agricultural sector, it functions as a critical emulsifier in pesticide emulsifiable concentrates (EC). It stabilizes the dispersion system and significantly improves the adhesion of the chemical solution to crop leaves, reducing waste. With a biodegradation rate exceeding 90%, it fully complies with strict EU environmental standards, making it a safe choice for open-field applications.

Technical Superiority: Cloud Point and Stability
Beyond its cleaning metrics, AEO-9 offers distinct formulation advantages due to its higher cloud point compared to lower-mole ethoxylates. This allows for the creation of stable, crystal-clear formulations at higher temperatures without phase separation. Furthermore, it exhibits excellent wetting properties and is easier to handle during manufacturing, as it is less prone to forming unmanageable gels compared to other non-ionics when mixed with water, streamlining the production process.
