Emulsifier 4.5

Emulsifier 4.5

Emulsifier 4.5 is a non-ionic surfactant used in textile processing for its excellent emulsifying, wetting, and dispersing properties. As part of the ethoxylated nonylphenol group, specifically with 4.5 moles of ethylene oxide, it is ideal for applications requiring moderate solubility and emulsification. It plays a key role in textile pre-treatment, scouring, dyeing, and finishing, ensuring uniform chemical distribution and improved fabric quality.

Emulsifier 4.5 is a multi-functional surfactant used in textiles for emulsification, anti-static properties, dye stabilization, and fabric softening, ensuring high-quality and efficient fabric processing.

Emulsifier 4.5 aids in the removal of oils, grease, and waxes from fabric, making it a valuable component in scouring formulations. It also enhances dye dispersion and stability, leading to uniform coloration in textile dyeing. Additionally, it acts as a lubricant in fabric processing, reducing static buildup and friction, which is essential for high-speed textile operations.
