Glycolic acid ethoxylate 4-nonylphenyl ether

Glycolic acid ethoxylate 4-nonylphenyl ether (CAS 53610-02-9 ), also known as polyethylene glycol carboxymethyl ether nonylphenyl ether, is a nonionic surfactant combining ethoxylate and carboxymethyl functionality in a single molecule. It delivers emulsification, wetting, and degreasing performance across industrial and formulated product applications. In textile and leather processing, it functions as a scouring and wetting agent. This chemical improves penetration of treatment baths into fiber substrates. Industrial and institutional cleaning formulations use it to emulsify oils and greases on hard surfaces, particularly where low-foam profiles are required. Coatings and adhesive systems incorporate it as a dispersant to stabilize pigment and filler suspensions, supporting uniform film formation. Personal care and cosmetic formulators apply it as an emulsifier and humectant. It is used as a component in rinse-off and leave-on products. The material is supplied as a liquid or viscous paste depending on the ethoxylation degree. Technical grade is the standard commercial offering. Concentrations typically range from 90–100% active content. Specifications vary by ethylene oxide chain length, and buyers should confirm HLB value and active content against their formulation requirements before sourcing.
