T-Det® N 1.5 is an anhydrous liquid nonionic surface active agent produced by the reaction of nonylphenol with 1.5 moles of ethylene oxide. It is a pale yellow liquid and can be used in chemical processing, emulsifiers, and foam control. It is also effective as a co-emulsifier in nonionic and nonionic-anionic surfactant blends.

  • Chemical Processing - an intermediate for conversion to the sulfate ester used in high foaming cleaners.
  • Emulsifiers - useful as an emulsion stabilizer; an oil-soluble detergent and dispersant for use in petroleum oils; effective as a co-emulsifier in nonionic and nonionic-anionic surfactant blends.
  • Foam Control - in low concentrations a foam stabilizer, in higher concentrations, a defoamer in low defoaming systems.
