Properties:
AEO-3 is derived from natural fatty alcohols and is highly soluble in oils and polar solvents. It forms a diffuse phase in water, providing excellent emulsifying properties, especially as a w/o (water-in-oil) emulsifier. It is a low-toxicity product with excellent biodegradability. AEO-3 also demonstrates superior emulsifying and foaming capabilities, making it a valuable nonionic surfactant.
