Technical Details & Test Data
- Technical Information
Flexisurf MCO-30 is a versatile, natural feedstock based surfactant that contributes surfactancy and a thickening effect to improve the surface cling for cleaning formulations. The product provides a more stable system for viscosity building. High foaming, cleansing and solubilizing properties are also benefits for cleaning formulations.
Effective in acidic, neutral and alkaline solutions, and stable in hypochlorite bleach and peroxide systems, multifunctional MCO-30 contributes greasecutting detergency and foam boosting. Exceptional foaming and detergency properties with compatibility in nonionic, anionic and cationic surfactant solutions suggest a wide range of applications such as in Household and Industrial Cleaners, Liquid Detergents, and Personal Care formulations.- Formulary
Naturally derived, coconut oil-based, with 88% biorenewable carbon, Flexisurf MCO-30 is an environmentally responsible ingredient for detergents and cleaners. Cost effective, MCO-30
replaces and combines the properties of non-biorenewable olefin-based ingredients for enhanced performance. Concentrations of 1-5% are recommended as the starting point for use in cleaning formulations.
