1. Basic Information

2. Key Technical Specifications

• Hydroxyl Value: 150 ± 5 mgKOH/g
• Water Content: ≤ 1.0% (mass fraction)
• pH Value: 5.0 - 7.0 (in 1% aqueous solution, 25℃)
• HLB Value: Optimized for wetting and emulsification (reference range: 9.5 - 10.5, consistent with homologous isomeric tridecanol ethoxylate series)
• Solubility: Easily soluble in water, alcohols, and most polar organic solvents; compatible with anionic, cationic, and other non-ionic surfactants
• Stability: Chemically stable under normal storage and application conditions; resistant to weak acids and alkalis

3. Core Performance Advantages

• Excellent Wetting Capacity: Rapidly reduces the surface tension of aqueous systems, enabling quick penetration into solid-liquid interfaces. Ideal for scenarios requiring efficient wetting, such as coating formulations, cleaning agents, and adhesive systems.
• Superior Emulsification & Dispersion: Effectively disperses and stabilizes oil-soluble substances in water-based systems, preventing phase separation and ensuring uniform product consistency. Suitable for emulsifiable concentrates, industrial degreasers, and pigment dispersions.
• Low Foaming Characteristic: Designed with low-foam properties, minimizing operational interference in high-speed mixing, cleaning, and other processes that require foam control.
• Environmental Compatibility: Free of silicone and harmful solvents; complies with mainstream environmental standards. Its low toxicity and biodegradability reduce environmental impact during use and disposal.
• Broad Compatibility: Works seamlessly with other surfactant types and functional additives, facilitating flexible formula adjustment without compromising performance.

4. Typical Applications

• Industrial Cleaning: Used as a key component in ultrasonic cleaning agents, degreasers, and metal cleaning fluids, effectively removing oil, grease, and particulate contaminants from surfaces.
• Coatings & Inks: Acts as a wetting and dispersing agent in water-based coatings, inks, and adhesives, improving substrate wetting, pigment dispersion, and film-forming quality.
• Agrochemicals: Formulated into pesticide emulsifiable concentrates and water-dispersible granules to enhance spray coverage and penetration, improving the efficacy of active ingredients.
• Textile Processing: Aids in fiber wetting, dye dispersion, and leveling during textile dyeing and finishing processes, ensuring uniform coloration and fabric softness.
• Other Fields: Applicable in leather processing, papermaking additives, and industrial auxiliaries where wetting, emulsification, or dispersion performance is critical.

5. Recommended Usage & Dosage

• Dosage Range: 0.1% - 1.0% (mass fraction) of the total formulation; adjust according to specific application scenarios and performance requirements.
• Usage Method: Add to the formulation during the mixing stage; stir thoroughly at 20 - 40℃ to ensure uniform dispersion. For high-viscosity systems, dilute with a small amount of solvent (e.g., water or ethanol) before adding for better compatibility.

6. Packaging, Storage & Handling

• Packaging Specifications: Available in 50 kg plastic drums or 200 kg metal drums; customized packaging is provided upon request.
• Storage Conditions: Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated warehouse; avoid direct sunlight and high temperatures (storage temperature: 5℃ - 35℃). Prevent contact with strong acids, alkalis, and oxidizing agents.
• Shelf Life: 24 months from the production date when stored in original sealed packaging.
• Handling Precautions: Wear protective gloves and goggles during operation; in case of contact with eyes or skin, rinse immediately with plenty of water. For detailed safety information, refer to the Safety Data Sheet (SDS).

7. Quality Assurance

Terwet 1304 is produced through advanced ethoxylation technology and a strict three-level quality inspection system (raw material inspection, in-process sampling, finished product testing). Each batch is accompanied by a comprehensive test report, with full traceability of quality data, ensuring consistent performance and reliability. It meets the quality requirements of industrial-grade applications and complies with relevant environmental and safety standards in major regions worldwide.
