TRITON™ X-165 (70% Actives) Surfactant
TRITON™ X-165 (70% Actives) Surfactant is a nonionic octylphenol ethoxylate surfactant designed for use in paints, coatings, and dispersion applications. It functions as an effective emulsion stabilizer and dispersant, with strong performance at elevated temperatures and good solubility in the presence of salts, electrolytes, and caustic solutions. With an HLB of 15.5 and 16 moles of ethylene oxide, TRITON™ X-165 is well suited for water-based emulsification and dispersion systems requiring stability and formulation flexibility.
