Agrosurf NEC40

Chemical Name
Castor Oil Ethoxylated
Chemical Family
Castor Oil Ethoxylates

Agrosurf NEC40 is a speciality nonionic developed as an emulsifier for use in emulsifiable concentrate formulations. It can be used in conjunction with the anionics found in the Agrosurf AEC range. A combination of both anionic and nonionic emulsifiers can provide good synergistic effects in terms of emulsion quality and stability

Applications

Agrosurf NEC40 is a speciality nonionic developed as an emulsifier for use in emulsifiable concentrate formulations.; It can be used in conjunction with the anionics found in the Agrosurf AEC range. A combination of both anionic and nonionic emulsifiers can provide good synergistic effects in terms of emulsion quality and stability.; Agrosurf NEC40 is commonly used in combination with either Agrosurf PWS or Agrosurf CA for the preparation of emulsifiable concentrates containing organo-phosphorous insecticides such as Fenitrothion, Methyl Ethoate and Dichlorvos.; They can also be used in a similar way for herbicide systems based upon esters of chlorinated phenoxy-alkanoic acids.; Agrosurf NEC40 is compatible with anionic, nonionic, cationic and amphoteric surfactants.

Packaging Information

Agrosurf NEC40 can be supplied in bulk road tankers, IBC's or 200kg nett drums.
