Iso-tridecyl Alcohol Ethoxylate CAS 9043-30-5

Iso-tridecyl Alcohol Ethoxylate is a nonionic surfactant classified as an industrial ingredient used in nonionic surfactant formulations. It is produced by the ethoxylation of branched iso-tridecyl alcohol, forming a polymeric structure with hydrophilic ethylene oxide chains that provide surface activity through interfacial tension reduction and phase stabilization, with the CAS number 9043-30-5 identifying this substance group. This material is commonly applied in industrial chemical formulations where emulsification, dispersion, or wetting functions are required at the formulation or process level. From a supply perspective, it is available with competitive factory pricing, customized specifications, complete documentation including MSDS, TDS, COA, and supports bulk supply for industrial use.

FAQ - Technical & Supply Chain

  • Q:

    Do Iso-tridecyl Alcohol Ethoxylate and C13 alcohol ethoxylate correspond to the same CAS number?

    A: Yes. These names are commonly used to describe the same isotridecyl alcohol ethoxylate substance category and are associated with CAS 9043-30-5.
  • Q:

    Is Iso-tridecyl Alcohol Ethoxylate used as an industrial formulation ingredient rather than for laboratory research?

    A: This material is typically intended for use as an industrial ingredient in formulated systems, where it functions as a nonionic surfactant within production or processing formulations.
