Product Brief: C12-14 Lauryl Alcohol Polyoxyethylene Ether-23 (AEO-23)

C12-14 Lauryl Alcohol Polyoxyethylene Ether-23 (commonly known as AEO-23) is a high-performance, non-ionic emulsifier with excellent water solubility and stability. It features strong emulsifying, dispersing, and wetting capabilities, effectively blending oil-water systems while resisting hard water and pH fluctuations.
Widely applicable in cosmetics, detergents, food processing, paints, and textile auxiliaries, it enhances product texture, solubility, and shelf life. Available in industrial/food grades, it meets global safety standards, is biodegradable, and suitable for eco-friendly formulations. Ideal for bulk industrial use, it offers consistent quality for large-scale production needs.


Product Advantage

  1. Exceptional O/W Emulsification Stability: AEO-23 (MOA-23) has an HLB value of 17.5-18.5, the highest among common AEO series products, making it outstanding for oil-in-water emulsification. It can stabilize even high-viscosity oil phases (e.g., heavy mineral oil, solid waxes), with emulsion stability reaching over 99% after 120 hours of static storage, far exceeding industry average standards.

  2. Superior Water Solubility and Clear Formulation: It dissolves rapidly in water at room temperature, forming a transparent solution within 2 minutes, without turbidity or sediment. This property is crucial for high-end transparent products (e.g., clear lotions, transparent detergents), eliminating the need for additional solubilizers and simplifying production processes.

  3. Low Foaming and Easy Rinsing: Unlike many high-HLB emulsifiers, AEO-23 exhibits low foaming characteristics—foam height is less than 15mm in a 1% aqueous solution (measured by Ross-Miles method). This makes it ideal for applications requiring low foam, such as industrial cleaning and high-pressure washing, as it reduces rinsing time and water consumption by 20%.

  4. High Purity and Environmental Friendliness: With a water content of ≤0.5% and a Pt-Co color value of ≤10, it has ultra-high purity, avoiding product discoloration or odor. Additionally, it is readily biodegradable (biodegradation rate ≥95% within 28 days), complying with EU ECOCERT and US EPA environmental standards, suitable for green product formulations.

  5. Strong Compatibility with Active Ingredients: It shows excellent compatibility with high-concentration active substances (e.g., hyaluronic acid, plant extracts, pesticide active ingredients). It can encapsulate active ingredients to improve their stability, reducing the loss rate of active components by 30% compared to ordinary emulsifiers, enhancing product efficacy.

Product Uses

  1. High-End Cosmetics (Transparent Formulations): Used in transparent facial serums, essence lotions, and clear sunscreens. It emulsifies oil-soluble active ingredients (e.g., vitamin E, squalane) into transparent aqueous phases, ensuring product clarity while boosting active ingredient absorption.

  2. Industrial Precision Cleaning: Applied in cleaning agents for electronic components (e.g., circuit boards) and optical lenses. Its low-foam property prevents foam from affecting precision parts, and its strong emulsifying power removes oil stains without leaving residues, protecting product performance.

  3. Agricultural High-Efficiency Pesticides: As an adjuvant in pesticide microemulsions (ME) and water-dispersible granules (WDG). It improves the solubility and stability of pesticide active ingredients, enhancing adhesion to crop surfaces and increasing pest control efficiency by 25%.

  4. Pharmaceutical Industry (Oral and Topical Preparations): Used in oral emulsions (e.g., vitamin oil emulsions) and topical ointments. Its high purity and good biocompatibility meet pharmaceutical GMP standards, ensuring the safety and stability of pharmaceutical formulations.

  5. Textile Auxiliaries (High-Grade Fabric Treatment): Employed in the finishing process of high-grade fabrics (e.g., silk, cashmere). It acts as a softener emulsifier, uniformly dispersing silicone softeners on fabric surfaces, improving fabric smoothness and luster without damaging the fiber structure.


Usage & Handling Guide

  1. Dilution: Mix AEO-23 with water (or your base fluid) at 1-5% concentration (adjust per need) under gentle stirring (avoid high-speed mixing to prevent foam).

  2. Incorporation: Add the diluted solution to your formulation during the mixing phase (20-40°C is optimal for stability).

  3. Post-Mixing: Stir gently for 5-10 minutes to ensure uniform dispersion. Avoid extreme temperatures (>60°C) or strong acids/bases to maintain performance.


FAQ

  1. Q: What's the difference between AEO-23 and other AEO grades (e.g., AEO-9)?
    A: AEO-23 has more ethylene oxide groups, giving it stronger water solubility, better emulsification for oil-rich systems, and lower irritation—ideal for cosmetics/food, while AEO-9 suits detergents.

  2. Q: Is AEO-23 safe for food contact applications?
    A: Yes, food-grade AEO-23 meets global standards (e.g., FDA, EU EC No. 1333/2008). It's non-toxic, biodegradable, and safe for food processing like beverage emulsification or dairy stabilizers.

  3. Q: How should I store AEO-23 to keep its quality?
    A: Store in a cool (15-30°C), dry, sealed container away from direct sunlight and moisture. Avoid prolonged exposure to high temps (>60°C) to prevent viscosity changes or performance loss.

  4. Q: Can AEO-23 be used in acidic or alkaline formulations?
    A: It works in mild pH (5-9) systems. Extreme acids/bases (>pH 11 or <pH 3) may break down its structure, reducing emulsifying ability—test compatibility first for extreme formulations.
