Lauryl Alcohol Ethoxylate AEO-3 occupies an important position in the chemical industry due to its unique composition, excellent physical and chemical properties and wide application fields. With more than 10 years of technical support and export trade experience, we ensure that our customers receive high-quality products at competitive prices.
Lauryl Alcohol Ethoxylate AEO-3, also known as lauryl alcohol polyether-3 or AEO-3, is an important nonionic surfactant. The product is formed by the condensation of fatty alcohol and ethylene oxide, and has a unique molecular structure R-O-(CH2CH2O)nH, where R represents the fatty alcohol group of C12C18, and n represents the addition number of ethylene oxide, usually between 15-16. This structure gives AEO-3 an excellent balance of hydrophilicity and lipophilicity, making it widely used in many fields.
