Croduret™ 40 is a versatile, nonionic surfactant derived from vegetable sources. It is ethoxylated, meaning it undergoes a reaction with ethylene oxide to enhance its surfactant properties. This surfactant is well-suited for various applications across different industries. One of the key features of Croduret™ 40 is its excellent emulsifying and solubilizing capabilities. It enables the dispersion of immiscible substances, such as oils and water, facilitating the creation of stable emulsions and enhancing the solubility of hydrophobic compounds. This functionality makes it valuable in a wide range of formulations, including personal care, household, and industrial products.
