TERGITOL™ 15-S-5 Surfactant
TERGITOL™ 15-S-5 Surfactant is a nonionic surfactant with superior overall cleaning performance, is readily biodegradable, exhibits rapid wetting & spreading on hard surfaces, and has a lower aqueous surface tension than other ethoxylated surfactants. It also features fast foam collapse rates for easy rinsing, dissolves easily in aqueous solutions, narrow gel range, and is non-APE based. It can also be used in oilfield drilling and production formulations.
