Igepal® CA 897
Igepal® CA 897 is an excellent primary nonionic surfactant, recommended especially for the emulsion polymerization of acrylic, vinyl acrylic, styrene butadiene and styrene acrylic polymers.
It is one of a series of ethoxylated alkylphenol nonionic surfactants with different HLBs. Since differences in HLB affect emulsification and stabilization properties, the IGEPAL series allows the user to select the surfactant that will provide effective particle size control, low levels of coagulum, latex stability and trouble free commercial production.
