Ethylene glycol monododecyl ether

Description:
Ethylene glycol monododecyl ether, with the CAS number 4536-30-5, is a nonionic surfactant characterized by its hydrophilic ethylene glycol head and a hydrophobic dodecyl tail. This structure allows it to effectively reduce surface tension and enhance wetting properties, making it useful in various applications, including detergents, emulsifiers, and dispersants. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a mild odor. Ethylene glycol monododecyl ether is soluble in water and organic solvents, which contributes to its versatility in formulations. Its low toxicity profile makes it suitable for use in personal care products and household cleaners. Additionally, it exhibits good stability under a range of pH conditions and temperatures, which is advantageous for industrial applications. However, like many surfactants, it should be handled with care to avoid skin and eye irritation. Overall, its unique properties make it a valuable ingredient in both industrial and consumer products.
