General Description

Alcohols, C6-12, ethoxylated are a group of chemicals that are produced by the process of ethoxylation, which involves reacting alcohols with ethylene oxide. The resulting ethoxylated alcohols have a range of carbon chain lengths, typically between C6 and C12. These chemicals are used as surfactants and emulsifiers in a variety of products, including household cleaners, personal care products, and industrial applications. They are valued for their ability to lower the surface tension of liquids and to help mix substances that are normally unable to combine, such as oil and water. Ethoxylated alcohols are considered to be relatively mild and non-toxic, making them suitable for use in many consumer products. However, concerns have been raised about their potential environmental impact and the presence of impurities such as 1,4-dioxane, which is a known carcinogen.
