It has the second lowest cloud point in a series of DeFOREST alkoxylates with cloud points ranging from 15°C to 61°C. Soluble in alcohols, glycols, and solvents. It is water soluble below its cloud point and dispersible above its cloud point (23° -27°C). It is insoluble in oils.
-
A moderate foaming, nonionic, alkoxylated alcohol having a cloud point in water of ~40ºC. It exhibits a mid-range cloud point in a series of DeFOREST alkoxylates with cloud points ranging from 15°C to 61°C. Soluble in alcohols and glycols. It is water soluble below its cloud point, dispersible above its cloud point (38° - 42°C), and insoluble in oils.
-
A moderate foaming, nonionic, alkoxylated alcohol having a cloud point in water of ~61ºC. It has the highest cloud point in a series of DeFOREST alkoxylates with cloud points ranging from 15°C to 61°C. Soluble in alcohols and glycols.
