CAS 27847-86-5
:octaethylene glycol monotetradecyl ether
Description:
Octaethylene glycol monotetradecyl ether, with the CAS number 27847-86-5, is a nonionic surfactant characterized by its long hydrophobic alkyl chain and hydrophilic polyethylene glycol (PEG) segment. This compound typically features a tetradecyl group, which consists of 14 carbon atoms, providing significant lipophilicity, while the octaethylene glycol moiety contributes to its hydrophilicity. As a result, it exhibits excellent emulsifying, wetting, and solubilizing properties, making it useful in various applications, including cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and industrial formulations. The balance between its hydrophilic and hydrophobic parts allows it to effectively reduce surface tension and stabilize emulsions. Additionally, octaethylene glycol monotetradecyl ether is generally considered to be biodegradable and less toxic compared to other surfactants, which enhances its appeal for environmentally friendly formulations. Its performance can be influenced by factors such as temperature and concentration, and it is often used in combination with other surfactants to optimize formulation stability and efficacy.
