1. Core Basic Information
- Product Name
- Chinese: Polyoxyethylene Castor Oil Derivative
- English: Polyoxyethylene Castor Oil Derivative
- Brand Series: Clariant Emulsogen® Series
- Manufacturer: Clariant Group – a leading global specialty chemicals company, with businesses spanning care chemicals, natural resources, catalysis and energy. It is renowned for high-purity and high-stability products.
- Chemical Properties
- Type: Nonionic surfactant
- CAS No.: 61791-12-6
- Appearance: Light yellow to amber viscous liquid at room temperature, with no obvious odor
- Solubility: Easily soluble in water, ethanol and propylene glycol; dispersible in most polar organic solvents; insoluble in non-polar solvents such as mineral oil and paraffin
2. Key Performance and Characteristics
- Core Functions: Possesses high-efficiency emulsifying, wetting and dispersing capabilities. It can reduce the oil-water interface tension to stabilize multiphase systems. Meanwhile, it has mild surface activity, with low irritation to skin and mucous membranes.
- Stability
- Chemical Stability: Stable in the pH range of 4-10, resistant to acids, alkalis and hard water, and not prone to hydrolysis or oxidation.
- Thermal Stability: No significant performance degradation in environments below 80℃; short-term use at high temperatures (≤120℃) can still maintain emulsifying effects.
- Safety: Complies with EU EC 1223/2009 and US FDA food contact material standards. Some grades can be used in pharmaceutical excipient scenarios (such as oral or topical preparations).
3. Main Application Fields
- Industrial Field
- Coatings and Inks: Used as an O/W emulsifier in the preparation of water-based coatings and water-based inks, improving pigment dispersibility and system stability to avoid stratification.
- Metal Processing: Applied in metal cutting fluids and cleaning agents to enhance oil-stain emulsifying ability and reduce corrosion on metal surfaces.
- Textile Dyeing and Printing: Serves as a wetting agent and leveling agent, improving the uniform adhesion of dyes on fibers and enhancing color fastness.
- Pharmaceutical and Daily Chemical Field
- Pharmaceutical Excipients: Used as an emulsifying stabilizer in oral suspensions and topical creams, or as a drug solubilizer
- Daily Chemical Products: Added to mild detergents, body washes and skin care products to reduce the irritation of surfactants on the skin and improve product skin feel.
4. Specifications, Packaging, Storage and Transportation
- Technical Specifications
- Purity: Active ingredient content ≥99%
- Moisture Content: ≤0.5%
- Acid Value: ≤2 mg KOH/g .
- Packaging Specifications: Conventional industrial packaging includes 200L HDPE plastic drums or 1000L IBC totes, suitable for industrial bulk transportation and storage.
- Storage and Transportation Requirements
- Storage: Store in a cool (5-30℃), dry and ventilated environment, keep sealed, and avoid direct sunlight and high-temperature exposure.
- Transportation: Transport as non-hazardous chemicals (UN number UN3082, classified as environmentally hazardous substances; leakage and pollution must be avoided).
- Shelf Life: 24 months in unopened condition (for products beyond the shelf life, the active ingredient content must be re-tested, and they can be used only after qualification is confirmed).
5. Product Advantages
- Stronger Compatibility: Can be compounded with anionic, cationic and other nonionic surfactants without incompatibility, flexibly meeting multi-formulation needs.
- Wide Application Range: Covers high and low requirement scenarios from industrial high-performance emulsification to pharmaceutical-grade mild excipients, reducing customers' multi-product procurement costs.
- Comprehensive Compliance: Meets the regulations of the chemical, pharmaceutical and daily chemical industries in major global regions (EU, US, China), reducing customers' compliance risks.
