MAKON® UD-5
- CAS Number
- 127036-24-2
- EC Number
- 603-182-5
MAKON® UD-5 is a c11 branched alcohol ethoxylate with a hydrophilic-lipophilic balance (hlb) of 10.9. It fits oil- and water-based formulations alike and proves valuable in hard surface cleaning applications. Its role goes beyond mere wetting, serving as a functional additive for solubilization. Its branched structure and low gel curve make it a viable replacement for tridecyl alcohol ethoxylates and nonyl phenol ethoxylates.
