CAS 59970-10-4
:tetraethylene glycol monooctadecyl ether
Description:
Tetraethylene glycol monooctadecyl ether, with the CAS number 59970-10-4, is a nonionic surfactant characterized by its long hydrophobic alkyl chain and hydrophilic polyethylene glycol (PEG) segment. This compound typically features a structure that includes an octadecyl group, which contributes to its lipophilic properties, making it effective in solubilizing oils and fats. The tetraethylene glycol moiety provides hydrophilicity, enhancing its ability to interact with water and other polar solvents. As a surfactant, it exhibits properties such as emulsification, wetting, and dispersing, making it useful in various applications, including cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and industrial formulations. Its nonionic nature means it is less sensitive to pH and electrolyte concentration compared to ionic surfactants, which can be advantageous in certain formulations. Additionally, tetraethylene glycol monooctadecyl ether is known for its low toxicity and good biodegradability, aligning with increasing environmental and safety standards in chemical usage.
