Quick Overview

Product Description:

NP9 (Nonylphenol Ethoxylate) is a non-ionic surfactant used extensively as an emulsifier and wetting agent in the production of detergents, textile auxiliaries, and other industrial formulations. It improves the blending of oil and water-based ingredients and ensures better surface penetration, making it highly effective in cleaning, degreasing, and dispersion processes.

With excellent wetting, emulsifying, and low-foaming properties, NP9 is compatible with both anionic and cationic systems. Its chemical stability and high solubility make it suitable for a wide range of formulations, including liquid detergents, cleaners, agrochemicals, and textile processing fluids.
