Alkoxylates
Alkoxylates are chemicals produced by the process of alkoxylation, wherein compounds, such as alcohols, phenols, and amines, react with alkoxides to form alkoxylates. Various types of alkoxylates are alcohol alkoxylates; fatty acid alkoxylates, and fatty amine alkoxylates, which are used as cleaning agents, emulsifying agents, detergents, stabilizers, dispersing agents, and wetting agents. Alcohol alkoxylates are most commonly used among end-use industries, owing to their degradable and environment-friendly nature.
