CAS 125441-87-4: Poly(oxy-1,2-ethanediyl), α-(2-methyl-1-oxo-2-propen-1-yl)-ω-hydroxy-, C18-22-alkyl ethers

Description: Poly(oxy-1,2-ethanediyl), α-(2-methyl-1-oxo-2-propen-1-yl)-ω-hydroxy-, C18-22-alkyl ethers, commonly referred to as a type of nonionic surfactant, exhibits several notable characteristics. This compound is derived from the reaction of long-chain alcohols (C18-22) with ethylene oxide, resulting in a hydrophilic-lipophilic balance that makes it effective in various applications, particularly in emulsification, wetting, and dispersing. Its structure includes a hydrophobic alkyl chain and a hydrophilic polyether segment, which contributes to its surfactant properties. The presence of the α-(2-methyl-1-oxo-2-propen-1-yl) group enhances its reactivity and functionality, making it suitable for use in formulations such as detergents, personal care products, and industrial applications. Additionally, this compound is generally characterized by good solubility in water and organic solvents, stability under a range of pH conditions, and low toxicity, which makes it favorable for both consumer and industrial use. Its biodegradability is also an important aspect, aligning with environmental sustainability goals.
