CAS 51811-79-1

Ethoxylated nonylphenol phosphate

Description:

Ethoxylated nonylphenol phosphate, with the CAS number 51811-79-1, is a nonionic surfactant commonly used in various industrial applications, including detergents, emulsifiers, and wetting agents. This compound is derived from nonylphenol, which is ethoxylated to enhance its solubility and functionality in aqueous environments. Ethoxylated nonylphenol phosphate exhibits excellent surface-active properties, making it effective in reducing surface tension and improving the dispersion of hydrophobic substances in water. It is characterized by its ability to form stable emulsions and foams, which is beneficial in formulations for cleaning products and agricultural applications. However, it is important to note that nonylphenol and its derivatives have raised environmental and health concerns due to their potential endocrine-disrupting effects and toxicity to aquatic life. As a result, regulatory scrutiny has increased, leading to a push for safer alternatives in formulations. Proper handling and disposal practices are essential to mitigate any potential risks associated with this chemical.
