CAS 70879-51-5: Poly(oxy-1,2-ethanediyl), α-(2-methyl-1-oxo-2-propen-1-yl)-ω-hydroxy-, C16-18-alkyl ethers

Description: Poly(oxy-1,2-ethanediyl), α-(2-methyl-1-oxo-2-propen-1-yl)-ω-hydroxy-, C16-18-alkyl ethers, commonly referred to as a type of nonionic surfactant, is characterized by its amphiphilic nature, which allows it to interact with both hydrophilic and hydrophobic substances. This compound features a polyether backbone derived from ethylene oxide, which contributes to its solubility in water, while the long-chain C16-18 alkyl groups enhance its lipophilicity, making it effective in various applications, including emulsification, wetting, and dispersing agents in formulations. The presence of the α-(2-methyl-1-oxo-2-propen-1-yl) group indicates that it can participate in further chemical reactions, potentially enhancing its functionality. This substance is typically used in personal care products, detergents, and industrial applications due to its ability to lower surface tension and stabilize emulsions. Additionally, it is generally considered to have low toxicity and is biodegradable, making it a favorable choice in formulations aimed at environmental sustainability.
