How is Heliwet FA 91/4 made?
The product is manufactured by ethoxylation of synthetic fatty alcohols with a chain length of C9–C11. In this process, ethylene oxide is added per mole of fatty alcohol, resulting in a stable, non-ionic surfactant with moderate water solubility.
The function of Alcohol Ethoxylate
Heliwet FA 91/4 functions as an emulsifier, cleanser, and wetting agent. Due to its HLB value of 11.3, it is suitable as an oil-in-water emulsifier and as a co-surfactant in cleansing formulations. It helps to effectively remove oils and greases from surfaces or skin without being harsh.
