Lansurf AEP63
Product Category: Nonionics
C12–14 Alcohol Ethoxylated Propoxylated
INCI Name: Alcohols, C8‑18, ethoxylated propoxylated
Lansurf AEP63 is a biodegradable nonionic surfactant produced by the reaction of ethylene oxide and propylene oxide with a synthetic primary fatty alcohol, corresponding to an ethoxylated‑propoxylated alcohol (C12–14 + 6EO + 3PO). The product is supplied as a clear to hazy liquid and is compatible with soaps, anionic, cationic, and other nonionic surfactants.
​
Lansurf AEP63 provides effective wetting and good detergency while delivering low‑foaming performance, making it particularly suitable for high‑agitation and mechanical cleaning applications. Its balanced alkoxylate structure supports reliable performance across a wide range of industrial and institutional formulations where foam control is critical.
​
