Lansurf AE735
Product Category: Nonionics
Cetyl Oleyl Alcohol + 35EO
INCI Name: Trideceth‑20
Lansurf AE735 is a nonionic surfactant produced by the reaction of ethylene oxide with a cetyl oleyl alcohol, corresponding to a cetyl oleyl alcohol ethoxylate containing approximately 35 moles of ethylene oxide. The product is supplied as a white to off‑white solid in flake or powder form and is fully compatible with soaps, anionic, cationic, and other nonionic surfactants.
​
Lansurf AE735 exhibits good oil‑in‑water emulsification, wetting, and detergency, making it suitable for a wide range of industrial formulation systems. Its high ethoxylation level and elevated HLB value (~17) provide strong hydrophilicity and effective performance in aqueous systems requiring stable emulsification and dispersion.
​​
Key Features
​
-
Good oil‑in‑water emulsification, enabling stable emulsions across detergents, coatings, agrochemical, and industrial formulations.
-
Effective wetting performance, supporting strong surface wetting needed in textile auxiliaries, cleaning products, and polymer processing.
-
Strong detergency, making it suitable for high‑performance cleaning applications in both industrial and domestic environments.
