Description : Alcohols, C12-16, ethoxylated (CAS 68551-12-2) represents a versatile class of Non-Ionic Surfactants derived from high-purity linear fatty alcohols. Often referred to as Linear Alcohol Ethoxylates (LAE), these compounds are engineered by reacting a C12-C16 fatty alcohol "mother" chain with varying moles of ethylene oxide. This process results in a molecule with a hydrophobic tail and a hydrophilic head, making it a powerhouse for emulsification, wetting, and detergency. In the industrial sector, these ethoxylates are prized for their rapid biodegradability and superior performance across a wide temperature range. From being a core surfactant in household detergents to acting as a high-performance emulsifier in agrochemical formulations and textile processing, C12-16 ethoxylated alcohols are the essential "interface" between oil and water phases. We are a globally established oleochemical manufacturer worldwide through comprehensive regulatory documentation (CoA), traceability, and consistent global supply capabilities, ensuring reliable lead times and quality assurance across all grades.
