Fatty Acid Ethoxylate

Listing ID #3470032

Fatty acid ethoxylates are formed from ethoxylation process where fatty acids are made to react with ethylene oxide. This ethoxylation process is known as fatty acid ethoxylation. The ethoxylate bi-products formed from this ethoxylation process are non ionic surface active agents used in domestic as well as industrial formulations. These are widely applied in processes as emulsifying softeners, wetting agents, cleaning agents and dispersants. The most popular application of these fatty acid ethoxylates is in textile industry. They are used as spin finishing agents in various textile formulations. The ethoxylates based on stearic acid have applications in cosmetics industries as emulsifiers in oil-in-water type creams and lotions. Likewise some of the popular variants of ethoxylated fatty acid formulations used in industries are coconut fatty acid ethoxylate, lauric acid ethoxylate, oleic acid, myristic acid ethoxylates.
